Briefly News reported that the businessman deposited R800K into Mziwethemba Harvey Gwabeni's bank account before the murder. Gwabeni is said to have distributed the funds among his co-conspirators.

However, after insisting that the money was for business purposes between the men, Sunday World reported that the police did not have concrete evidence to arrest and question Gcaba.

This after it was alleged that Bheki Cele and the SAPS feared getting on the Gcaba family's bad side. The cops also believe that there are more powerful forces involved in the assassination.
