Senzo Meyiwa Trial: Kelly Khumalo Allegedly Refused to Hand Over His ID, Igniting Speculation Over Insurance

• Senzo Meyiwa's close friend told the court that Kelly Khumalo refused to give him Senzo's ID after he died
• He told Advocate Zandile Mshololo that she only gave it to the Meyiwa family in the presence of police
• Twitter investigators tried to make sense of the testimony, with many concluding it might be insurance-related

The Pretoria High Court heard the testimony of Mthokozisi Thwala, the sixth witness of the new Senzo Meyiwa trial Friday, 4 August.

Kelly Khumalo refused to hand over Senzo Meyiwa's ID

Senzo's childhood friend, Mthokozisi, told the court that he was delegated to fetch the deceased's belongings from Kelly and Senzo's Mulbarton home the day after he was fatally shot at the Khumalos' Vosloorus residence in October 2014.

He said the Asine hitmaker refused to hand over Senzo's ID, insisting on giving it to his brother and father.
