Senzo’s murder must now be solved

It has been more than two years since former Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa, pictured, was gunned down in front of six people in Vosloorus at Kelly Khumalo’s parents’ home.

It is said that Sello Chicco Twala was protecting his people – his son in particular – but he has now come to the fore saying: “Let justice take place. If my son is involved take him to jail.” That tells me that the net is now closing in.

Congratulations, Sam, for crying out for justice. It is not yet done, but there are signs of victory.

If Sam had no platform to cry on, who would have heard about his cries? If the senior Meyiwa didn’t have the persistence to forge forward despite the intimidation by those that feel they may be affected by the investigation outcomes, where would this case be now?

Justice in most cases is served for those with big names and money or connections.
