Two brothers, Siyabonga and Malusi Ndimande, have been charged with murdering South African rapper AKA, whose real name is Kiernan Forbes. They were extradited from Eswatini after a long legal battle tried to stop their return.
The brothers are accused of killing AKA and his friend during a shooting incident in South Africa. They face several charges, including murder, attempted murder, and firearm offences. Police said they were brought to court under heavy security for their hearing in Durban.
The trial is expected to attract wide attention as the case unfolds over the next year. Experts say it will be a test of South Africa’s criminal justice system.
Authorities have urged the public to remain calm and allow the courts to handle the matter fairly. The investigation is ongoing, and more information is expected during the trial proceedings.
