Four convicted homophobic killers are due to be sentenced in the
Khayelitsha Regional Court
today.
 The four men were found guilty of murdering 19 year-old Zoliswa Nkonyana in 2006.
Nine men were arrested for the murder.
The other five men were acquitted due to lack of evidence linking them to the murder.
The four that are sentenced have been arguing their innocence throughout the trial.
Nkonyana was stabbed nine times and stoned to death following an argument about her sexual orientation.
