Adv Teffo: Are you now aware that there are two cases that have been opened in regards to this murder?

Mosia: Now I know.
Adv Teffo: The theory of the first case is that two men entered the house and when they left, our hero #SenzoMeyiwa was killed. Leading to the five men behind me being arrested. Can you see them?

Mosia: I see them.
Adv Teffo: The other case says it is nonsensical that two people entered that house. What is being said is that there were people in that house that day, the owner, family and visitors, including our beloved son of the soul. #SenzoMeyiwa.
