Mzansi blasts Kelly Khumalo and Zandie Khumalo

It didn't take long for Mzansi to swarm Kelly's comments section. They dragged her and Zandie for allegedly refusing to cooperate with the court to solve Senzo's murder case as quickly as possible.

@tenhlanhla_khumalo said:

"I love you so much Mntungwa, but please ask your younger sister to remain silent when the ongoing case is concerned. She contradicts herself too much. You, on the other hand, have been advised by your lawyer and your team in whatever you have been saying while she has been venting and ranting online."

@aphiwedacks shared:

"Kelly, tell your sister to withdraw her application in court and testify in front of cameras."
