The plot in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial has thickened as Zandie Khumalo allegedly requested that her testimony not be televised.
According to ZAlebs, the controversial murder case commenced again on 15 May, and witnesses are expected to testify throughout the week. However, a well-known witness requested that their testimony not be made public.
On Twitter, SABC News journalist @KingKAzania said:

Is Zandie Khumalo the Senzo Meyiwa trial's witness who requested that her testimony not be broadcast?
The Senzo Meyiwa trial has been of public knowledge for almost a decade, and many peeps chimed in on the 2014 murder. As Zandie and her sister Kelly Khumalo were both present on that fateful day, they received harsh criticism from Mzansi.
ZAlebs further said that the backlash was because Zandie and Kelly made conflicting statements about what happened before Senzo died, and many people wanted them to be grilled in court.
The South African reported recently that Zandie piqued everyone's interest when she suggested in an Instagram post that she would take the stand to prove her innocence. However, days after the post went viral, news sources stated that a specific witness had asked to testify in private.
