Mureder accussed Phakamani Hadebe said he was beaten into implication Zweli Mkize

Accused number one in the murder case involving Gauteng government senior official Babita Deokaran says he wants the confession statement he made to the police to be thrown out as evidence in court.

The accused, Phakamani Hadebe, said after he was arrested he was taken to Turf-fontein Racecourse where he was put in a secluded place and assaulted. In court, he denied any involvement saying he was coerced into implicating the former minister, adding that he has never met Mkhize.

It's believed Deokaran was a key State witness in a multi-million rand Gauteng PPE scandal involving senior government officials before she was shot dead in August.
