Sandton Businessman Arrested for DJ Sumbody Hit

GAUTENG PROVINCE, SOUTH AFRICA, JUL 21 – Four men, including businessman Katiso Molefe, were arrested in a major breakthrough connecting the 2022 murder of DJ Sumbody to multiple violent crimes, police said.

  • Gauteng authorities arrested four men on Monday, with Katiso 'KT' Molefe taken at his Sandton home, in connection with DJ Sumbody’s 2022 murder.
  • Authorities are probing a possible connection between the failed 2023 shooting of actress Tebogo Thobejane and the 2022 murder of DJ Sumbody, with sources indicating one suspect spans both cases.
  • The suspects face charges including murder and conspiracy, with a firearm linked to other murders after Gauteng organised crime detectives and the SAPS Political Killings Task Team collaborated, demonstrating the probe’s depth.
  • Authorities said the suspects will face court on Tuesday, while General Fannie Masemola described the arrests as a `pivotal breakthrough`.
  • The probe could expand as ballistics ties emerge, with Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi saying further arrests may follow, potentially implicating high-ranking officials.
