Meyiwa Trial: Defence Witness Says Police Fed Him Suspects' Names

His account challenges how investigators recorded statements in the case.

Overview

Absolom Zungu is expected to continue testifying in the High Court in Pretoria on Thursday as the defence's second witness.
Zungu denies making an incriminating statement to lead investigator Brigadier Bongani Gininda.
He testifies that officers told him to name "Muzi" and "Ntanzi" and says he refused to sign the statement prepared for him.
He says the statement was taken at a house rather than a police station, with Gininda doing the writing.
His son, Constable Sizwe Zungu, previously told the court the five accused were together at a Vosloorus hostel before and after the killing.
