CASE AGAINST KT MOLEFE AND OTHERS TRANSFERRED TO THE HIGH COURT
The Alexandra Magistrates’ Court has postponed the matter against Katiso Molefe (61) to 05 February 2026. Authorisation has been granted to centralise the Vereeniging docket, and due to the seriousness of the offences, the case has been transferred to the High Court of South Africa, Gauteng Division, Johannesburg, for its first appearance.
Molefe and his co-accused, Michael Pule Tau (55), Tiego Floyd Mabisela (45), and Musa Kekana, face 35 charges, including murder, conspiracy to commit murder, unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition, and other serious offences. The State alleges that Molefe orchestrated the murder of Oupa Sefoka, popularly known as DJ Sumbody, who was gunned down on 20 November 2022 in Woodmead, Johannesburg.
According to the State, forensic evidence links the high-calibre rifles used in DJ Sumbody’s murder to several other high-profile killings, including those of Hector Buthelezi (DJ Vintos), Don Tindleni, and Armand Swart. The NPA remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring accountability by diligently pursuing all individuals implicated in serious and organised crime, guided at all times by the evidence and the interests of justice.
