The four accused briefly appeared before the Alexander Magistrate's Court facing charges of murder and conspiracy to commit murder on Tuesday.


This follows their arrest in Gauteng on Monday.


Sekofa was killed in a hail of bullets in November 2022 alongside his two body guards, Sibusiso Mokoena and Sandile Myeza.


Speaking to the media outside court, National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane said the accused are facing three counts of murder, two of possession of firearms and a possession of ammunition.


She added that one of the accused indicated that they want to bring a formal bail application before court.


"As the state we were not yet ready to proceed, we are finalising the investigation in terms of the bail application that must be heard by the court.


"We have been granted the opportunity by the court to conclude those investigations which will include amongst others, profiling the accused that wants to bring the formal bail application."
