Twist: “The fingerprint belongs to somebody who was in the house” — SAPS officer reveals in court

The ongoing investigation into the murder of Senzo Meyiwa took an intriguing turn during today’s inquiry session. Baloyi, the inquisitive voice of the proceedings, directed his attention to a key piece of evidence concerning identifiable fingerprints found on the bedroom door handle. Seeking further clarity, Baloyi questioned whether any subsequent investigation had taken place regarding this crucial discovery.

Mhlahlo, a pivotal witness in the case, confirmed that indeed additional steps had been undertaken to probe the fingerprints. She recounted how the detective overseeing the case had procured fingerprints from individuals who had resided in the house. These fingerprints were collected as part of an elimination process, aimed at differentiating between those who had legitimate access to the premises. Mhlahlo explained that a meticulous comparison had been conducted, pitting the collected fingerprints against those of the individuals present in the house on the fateful night of the incident.

The spotlight then fell on the identity of the fingerprints, as Baloyi pressed for clarification. Mhlahlo disclosed that the fingerprints in question were attributed to Nonhlanhla Khumalo, one of the individuals who had been present in the house at the time of the incident. This revelation potentially bears significant implications, casting a new layer of intrigue over the ongoing investigation.

Mhlahlo proceeded to share another crucial detail: the absence of any cartridge discovered at the crime scene. As the State’s presentation concluded, the courtroom was left with a lingering sense of anticipation, eagerly awaiting the next revelations that will shed light on the perplexing circumstances surrounding Senzo Meyiwa’s tragic murder.
