A Durban man who killed a young woman has been sentenced to life imprisonment.
A convicted killer has been sentenced to life imprisonment in the Durban Regional Court.
Mapi Mhle Goba, 40, was convicted of the murder of 21-year-old Nondumiso Sbahle Dlamini in September 2025 near the Edwin Swales Highway after pleading guilty.
In his plea, Goba told the court that on September 12, 2025, he met up with the young woman at the traffic lights in the Mayville area, where they arranged to meet before going to the tavern for drinks.
After spending time at the tavern, the duo became intoxicated, and an argument ensued over money that had allegedly gone missing from Goba’s room.
