SINGER Kelly Khumalo ordered the hit on former Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa.
This is according to lead investigator Brigadier Bongani Gininda. He made the revelation while reading an affidavit in the North Gauteng High Court on Wednesday, 24 January during the Senzo Meyiwa trial.
He said the affidavit by accused number one, Muzi Sibiya, clearly implicated Kelly.
He read: “As early as 2013 she wanted to get rid of the deceased as she put it. It is apparently clear that she hated him and she wanted to get rid of him. She further states that she regrets not successfully getting rid of him before.”
Gininda said cellphone records showed that after Senzo was killed, Kelly allegedly did not call emergency services.
“No call was made to emergency services. She subsequently went to a witch doctor for cleansing as it was also done to the other accused in this matter,” he said.

Gininda said someone who is not guilty would not behave in such a manner.
Kelly was also implicated by accused number two, Bongani Ntanzi as the mastermind of Senzo's murder.
Gininda said a photo of a see-through bag containing cash was found on accused number three's phone. The same picture was also discovered on Kelly's phone.
He also said Kelly did not disclose cellphone numbers to the police and these were discovered during investigations. She is linked to accused number three and five through cellphone records.
The matter was adjourned to Thursday, 25 January.
