ZASipho Lucky Mahlangu, a 34-year-old man from Soshanguve, appeared in court and withdrew his bail application after being charged with the murder of Monica Dube, the Election Coordinator and Secretary for the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) in Tshwane Region Two. According to the allegations, Mahlangu and an accomplice broke into Dube's home in Wallmansthal on June 13, shot her in the head in front of her children, and stole her cellphone. The incident occurred during the early hours of the morning. Mahlangu was later identified by Dube's daughter at a taxi rank on July 4, leading to his arrest. His case has been postponed until September 17 for further investigation.
