A tracker has placed a car hired in the name of one of the men accused of murdering Pete Mihalik near the scene of the crime, the Cape Town Magistrate's Court heard on Friday.
Prosecutor Helene Booysen said that according to the tracker details, on October 29, the day before Mihalik was killed, at 07:44:45 the vehicle was at the corners of Upper Portswood and Main Road in Green Point. The three, together with a fourth unidentified suspect, allegedly travelled in two cars – a VW Polo and a Renault Clio.
The traffic officer asked Khumalo where his car was and he responded that his passenger had driven away in it. Khumalo also answered Kinnear's questions, allegedly saying that Maliti had asked him to kill a"white man" the day before. But he told him he was scared.On Friday Booysen also submitted a lengthy print out of cellphone records obtained through a Criminal Procedure Act application, which show a flurry of mostly quick calls between Maliti and the other two suspects before and after the shooting.
