Here are the roles of the six suspects who were involved in AKA’s murder.
According to recent reports, six people have been arrested as suspects in the murder of South African rapper AKA and his best friend, Tibz.
In a late-night conference at the South African Police Service (SAPS) headquarters on Tuesday night, South African Police Minister Bheki Cele said the six suspects are due to appear in court on Thursday. He was joined by the KZN provincial commissioner, Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, and National Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Fannie Masemola.
Mkhwanazi said, “These six suspects played different roles during the operation. We have the coordinator, who is basically the master of everything. He is in custody. We have two shooters. We have two spotters — one of the spotters was inside the restaurant observing, watching Mr. Forbes and his friends — as well as the organiser of firearms and vehicles; because the vehicle used as a getaway and firearms used to shoot, they were all hired.”
They revealed that one person, a spotter, followed the rapper from the airport to his hotel and then to Wish Restaurant. He was also responsible for gathering the team and paying them after the job.
