Police unfold mystery surrounding TK Mhinga's death
On Monday, 27 February 2006, staff members at a Bryanston hotel reportedly found TK Mhinga dead in her room. At the time, she had a baby boy, Oratile, with an unknown man.
The previous day, TK allegedly hosted friends in her hotel room, including Nkalakatha hitmaker Mandoza. Although her guests were said to have all left, rumours surfaced about someone having been with the singer at the time of her death. Sunday Times alleged that police found signs of choking.
According to News24, an arrest was made shortly after TK's death, where an alleged Midrand drug dealer's wife was taken into custody.
At the time, drug use in the entertainment industry was prevalent, having also taken Brenda Fassie's life two years prior. TK was said to have frequently visited the dealer, who may have possibly been tied to her mysterious death.
