Three of the Senzo Meyiwa accused were involved in a scuffle with an armed prison warder during the tea break of the murder trial.
The scuffle was due to the way in which the accused were sitting in the North Gauteng High Court, Pretoria, benches during the tea break.
Muzikawukhulelwa Sibiya, Bongani Ntanzi, Mthobisi Prince Mncube, Mthokoziseni Ziphozonke Maphisa, and Fisokuhle Nkani Ntuli, are standing trial for the October 2014 Vosloorus murder of the footballer, who was killed at his girlfriend Kelly Khumalo’s home in a suspected hit.
Mncube, Maphisa, and Ntuli were involved in the scuffle.
Footage from journalists who were in the courtroom during the tea break saw the accused and the warder involved in a heated scuffle during the tea break, with punches and closed hands thrown but not connecting.
