Ayepyep Cape Town pays security insurance,

According to Sunday World, Ralph Stanfied, an alleged 28s gangster boss from Cape Town, revealed that Oupa Sefoka (DJ Sumbody) and Setsetse were threatened to pay a protection fee in their Ayepyep club in the city.

During the payment negotiations, the pair initially had a salary dispute, but once that was sorted out, Setsetse insured Sumbody for R15 million.

Setsetse claims R15 million

He tried to access the musician's birth certificate from his mother after his death but failed. He then illegally attempted to get it from the funeral parlour. His plans were allegedly halted by the detectives pending an investigation.

Stanfied says Setsetse planned to move to Cape Town with his family some months after his partner's death, fearing for his life.

He adds they relocated to Dubai a month later, where he would start elbowing other shareholders and Sumbody's family and leeching millions from the business.

“Me and Oupa had what we call a buy and sell insurance. So basically what it is to cover a director in terms of death that the money is to be paid out to the family for the shares of the business.
