The long-unsolved murder case of former Bafana Bafana captain Senzo Meyiwa has taken another shocking twist in 2024.
South African singer Kelly Khumalo was reportedly seen twice at the Vosloorus Police Station, sparking a surge of speculation.
Eyewitnesses confirmed that Khumalo arrived in a private vehicle and was escorted inside by police officers.
“She didn’t look distressed, but she wasn’t smiling either,” said one witness.
“It seemed like she was there for serious business.”
This marks at least the second time in recent weeks that Khumalo has been seen at the station.
The visits come amid fresh controversy, reignited by an explosive public statement from Longwe Twala.
Twala, son of well-known music producer Chicco Twala, was present at the scene when Meyiwa was killed in 2014.
In a shocking interview, Longwe Twala accused Kelly Khumalo of being the person who pulled the trigger.
“Kelly is the one who shot Senzo,” Twala claimed.
“She knows what happened, and the truth needs to come out.”
This is the first time someone who was inside the house that fateful night has directly pointed fingers at Khumalo.
Previously, it had been widely suggested that intruders broke into the house and shot Meyiwa during a robbery.
Twala’s accusation challenges that long-standing narrative and reignites debate over the entire investigation.
Kelly Khumalo, who was Senzo’s girlfriend at the time of his death, has consistently denied any involvement.
Over the years, she has faced relentless public scrutiny, with many questioning inconsistencies in testimonies from that night.
Her sister Zandie and mother Ntombi Khumalo were also present during the incident.
In 2022, during the high-profile trial of five men accused of Meyiwa’s murder, defense attorneys suggested a cover-up.
Some witnesses hinted that evidence may have been tampered with, but no direct link to Khumalo was proven in court.
Legal analysts have weighed in on Twala’s recent statement, warning that accusations without hard evidence could be problematic.
“An accusation like this, especially from someone who was present, cannot be ignored,” said legal commentator Mpume Zikalala.
“But unless there’s forensic proof or corroborating testimony, it remains a bold claim.”
Experts also warn that if Twala’s claims are unfounded, they could be seen as defamatory.
The public response to Twala’s allegations has been deeply divided.
Some South Africans believe he is finally speaking the truth after years of silence.
Others are skeptical, questioning why he waited so long to come forward.
“Longwe was there — why is he only speaking now?” asked one user on social media.
“If he knew something, he should have said it years ago.”
Meanwhile, Khumalo’s supporters have come to her defense, calling the accusations yet another attack on her reputation.
“Kelly has suffered enough,” said a fan on Twitter.
“This case has dragged on for years, and she’s always been a target. Where’s the evidence?”
The South African Police Service (SAPS) has refused to confirm whether Khumalo was being formally questioned.
“We do not discuss ongoing investigations publicly,” said a police spokesperson.
“Any developments will be communicated through official channels.”
The timing of Khumalo’s visits to the police station and Twala’s damning allegations have placed renewed pressure on authorities.
There are growing calls to reopen certain aspects of the case or provide clarity to the public.
Legal experts suggest that if Twala is willing to provide a sworn statement, it could trigger a major breakthrough.
However, it could also open the door to a new legal battle if the claims are not substantiated.
As one of South Africa’s most notorious unsolved murder cases, the Meyiwa investigation continues to grip the nation.
With the spotlight back on Khumalo and new accusations surfacing, the demand for truth and justice is louder than ever.
Will this be the moment that finally cracks the case?
Or will it be another chapter in a saga full of twists, secrets, and unanswered questions?
Only time will tell.
