Police spokesperson Brenda Muridili said investigations were still underway and couldn’t confirm or deny that the police approached the prosecutors to grant them warrants to arrest the suspects.

“You need to speak to the NPA about that, I cannot comment on their behalf,” she said.

NPA South Gauteng spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane said the NPA had no knowledge of this.

Meyiwa was gunned down in an alleged armed robbery at his girlfriend Kelly Khumalo’s home in Vosloorus in October 2014.

No arrests have been made in connection with his murder so far.
