The weapon that killed DJ Sumbody may be linked to Tebogo Thobejane's attempted murder.

Possible link between DJ Sumbody and Tebogo Thobejane attacks

The attempted murder case of actress Tebogo Thobejane is still being investigated, and reports suggest that her attack may be linked to another prominent case.

Thobejane narrowly escaped death when gunmen attacked her car in October 2023. She sustained a foot injury, while her friend was left paralysed.

According to Sunday World, sources close to the case revealed that there could be a link between her botched hit and the brutal murder of Pretoria DJ/ businessman, DJ Sumbody.

The Monate Mpolaye hitmaker was gunned down in a hail of bullets in Woodmead, Johannesburg, on 20 November 2022, and his case remains cold.

"Ballistic examinations are ongoing, but preliminary results suggest that shell casings recovered from the N1 highway scene where Thobejane narrowly escaped death may match those found at the crime scenes of DJ Sumbody’s fatal ambush."

Taxi tycoon, Joe Sibanyoni, was attacked at a golf estate in Centurion in August 2022, in a similar fashion to the two other attacks.

As investigations are still underway, Thobejane's former lover and the man who allegedly ordered the hit on her, Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala, and his alleged hitmen remain in custody.

Meanwhile, Matlala's wife, Tsakani, is out on R20,000 bail.
