On Tuesday the defence in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial will continue to cross-examine the first state witness Zandile Khumalo. 

During cross-examination in the Pretoria high court on Monday, advocate Zandile Mshololo, who is representing one of five men accused of killing footballer Meyiwa in 2014, accused Khumalo of fabricating her evidence.

She failed to give a full description of the clothes worn by the second suspect.

Mshololo said the reason she could not do so was because “there was no second suspect. You are fabricating your story.”

Khumalo maintained she was telling the truth and had no intention to lie to the court.
