John Hlatshwayo, one of Manzini’s supporters said, “We are shocked to see two groups of the ANC fighting each other. This shows that there is no unity among ANC members in the province. We want to see justice prevail in this matter.”
Legal representatives of the five suspects, aged between 27 and 37, briefly appeared in court on their behalf. The suspects were not in court.
