Relatives of a man accused of killing a senior Grassy Park police officer say key evidence will free him.

Speaking to reporters  outside court yesterday, Luyanda Tafeni's family believe his car tracker will prove he was not on the crime scene.

Tafeni and his co-accused Mhlangabezi Mqulo each face murder charges for shooting Constable Lindekile Sikade outside his Philippi-East home earlier this year.

Tafeni’s family is adamant a tracking device will clear him of any wrong doing. 

Sikade was shot dead in his driveway while sitting in a marked police vehicle.

The men will remain in custody in Pollsmoor Prison until their next court appearance on 4 July.
