MANZINI - Will the police use a circulating video of what is suspected to be the murder scene involving former Minister of Public Works and Transport Ntuthuko Dlamini?


The video, which is making rounds on social media, shows a group of men seated in improvised benches constructed from logs.  As they were seated, they were eating from polysterine packs popularly known as takeaways. As they were dining, one of the men was seemingly engaged in an argument with another, believed to be the erstwhile minister. The incident happened at LaMgabhi, where two people were shot dead while one was seriously injured.


In the video, the man believed to be the former minister is clad in a blue coverall jacket, overlapping beneath it is a black and white golf shirt. He was also wearing a pair of khaki chinos. In the initial parts of the video, an argument was captured between the group of men.


As the arguments escalated, the cameraman at some instance seemed to have been moving away from where the men were while others were captured expressing shock. While all that was happening, a voice was captured in the background ordering all people to sit down and not move.


Following the circulation of the video, Chief Police Information and Communications Officer Superintendent Phindile Vilakati confirmed knowledge of the video. She was coy on whether it shall be presented to court as evidence.
Meanwhile, Dlamini was incarcerated on September 7, 2020. He was charged with the alleged murder of two men and another of attempted murder.
