This was after she allegedly threw herself over a balcony where her and her fiancé at the time Kiernan ‘AKA’ Forbes were staying.

When the news of her untimely passing was made official. There was drama surroundin­g the events of the night which resulted in her death. As reported at the time:

The Tembes also believe that AKA did not attend to Anele, who was alive 20 minutes after she landed on the ground, but instead cleaned the hotel room which had blood and then went ahead to party with his friends after her passing.

Stefanutto confirmed he had a heated argument between a male and female coming from AKA and Tembe’s hotel room.

This is as three months have passed, and despite there being CCTV footage of his last moments, no arrests have been made just yet.

Sunday World has come out with a story alleging that SAPS has reopened Anele’s case. The publicatio­n shared: “The police have opened a fresh investigat­ion into the death of slain rapper AKA’s fiancée Anele Tembe.

“Tembe, fondly known as Nelly, died after she ‘fell off’ from the balcony of Pepper Hotel in Cape Town two years ago, after an altercatio­n with the rapper…”

Hopefully, this means that the Tembe family will finally find some resolution and peace.

This is as in light of AKA’s assassinat­ion which took place in Durban, the family has been suspected to be involved.

In light of these allegation­s, the family has continuall­y refuted the claims. Anele’s father Moses Tembe released multiple statements, with the most recent asserting:

According to Moses, they are gravely concerned about the flood of posts on various social media platforms that accuse him and his family of allegedly assassinat­ing the rapper.

JOHANNESBU­RG - A little more than a month ago the Morules, Khuli and Lamiez, welcomed a new addition to their family, baby LeanoLaone Zion Morule.

Taking to his Instagram timeline the rapper threw back to the day his tribe planned a man shower for him to celebrate baby Chana’s pending arrival.

“Memories are special moments that tell our story. Thank you to my family for putting together this surprise baby shower for me. This is something I really needed,” he wrote. The couple’s families showed them great support during their pregnancy journey and Lamiez’s mom and sister threw her a surprise shower in February.

“To my son — I will be your army. My mum and sister surprised me with the most perfect shower for my little man and in that moment, nothing and no-one else mattered. Also got to gift my people with my favourite pairs of @bathu_sa among other cute items for simply making time to celebrate my Pumpkin. He is loved so much already,” she captioned her post.

The Metro FM DJ recently shared her birthing experience on her socials.

“A little while ago I got to experience an answered prayer, one I still marvel over. I find myself staring at him in awe, in disbelief that this perfect little human came from my body. I then get to watch his dad and my mum sing and play with him and my heart melts all over again,” she captioned her post.
