A fifth suspect has been arrested in connection with the murder of Umngeni Municipality DA councillor Nhlalayenza Ndlovu, who was gunned down at his home in 2023 in front of his wife and children.
The 44-year-old man was arrested in Mpophomeni on Saturday by the KwaZulu-Natal Political Killings Task Team and is expected to appear in the Howick Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said the latest arrest brings to five the number of suspects arrested and charged in connection with Ndlovu’s murder.
The PKTT investigation has fingered Chief Simphiwe Zuma of Nxamalala in Impendle as the alleged mastermind who issued the hit on Ndlovu.
