DJ Sumbody Case Briefly Delayed in Court
Court Postponement: The Alexandra Magistrate’s Court has granted the state a one-week postponement in the case against four men accused of the 2022 murders of DJ Sumbody (Oupa Sefoka) and his two bodyguards. The delay, set to extend the hearing to July 29, 2025, allows prosecutors to investigate fresh leads that have emerged since the defendants’ recent arrests across.
Suspects Named: The accused are Micheal Pule Tau, Tiego Floyd Mabusela, Musa Kekana, and Sandton businessman Katiso “KT” Molefe. They face three counts each of murder and conspiracy to commit murder related to the ambush and shooting in Woodmead.
Bail Status: Tau, Mabusela, and Kekana did not seek bail, while Molefe intends to apply. Prosecutors stated their intention to oppose his application.
Family Reaction: DJ Sumbody’s family expressed gratitude for the diligent work by law enforcement, acknowledging the extended legal process but hopeful that justice will be served.
Bottom line: A short delay was granted to allow further investigation, and all suspects are set to appear again on July 29 as the legal proceedings continue.
