Vilakazi said the investigation officer had made arrangements to ensure he received the video and proceeded with the investigation.
He added that another footage taken with a cellphone when the incident happened in July last 2023 has been sent to forensics to confirm whether the person captured was former Sizo'kthola presenter Xolani.

"The case was postponed three months ago, but, shockingly, nothing has been done to get the video footage.
