AKA passed away in February 2023

AKA, born Kiernan Forbes, was gunned down in Durban in February last year, along with his friend, Tebello Tibz Motsoane.

Seven suspects have since been arrested. Five of the accused were denied bail as they stand accused of planning and carrying out the murders of AKA and his friend.

It is alleged that the group planned the murders, arranged to get a Mercedes Benz and guns for the crime, and were seen monitoring AKA before he was shot.

State Prosecutor Lawrence Gcaba presented compelling evidence, such as phone records and CCTV footage, indicating that the accused were involved in planning the murders.
