Why was Mgube arrested?

According to ZiMoja, Lindani Mgube was arrested on 31 January by the Gauteng Province Cold Case Investigation Unit. The 33-year-old is being accused of shooting Faith Mafilika, and sangoma initiate Bandile Kubheka, who were both close to his sister-in-law Gogo Maweni.

Mgube appeared before the Vereeniging Magistrates Court who threw his bail application out the window. State prosecutor Leanie Reiner noted that one of the reasons why Gogo Maweni's brother-in-law's bail was denied was due to fears that he would intimidate two key witnesses in his case for whistleblowing.

It was also reported that Lindani Mgube secured a new lawyer after Rotenda Nthangeni, stepped down. The new lawyer who took over re-applied for bail for his client and noted that there was new evidence to support that Mgube can qualify for bail. The case was moved back to the bail court. He will be back in court on February 25 for arguments on new facts.
