WIDOW WANTED MURDER PROBED

Mulalo Sivhidzho asked her father-in-law to hire a private investigator to probe her husband’s murder in order to prove that she was innocent, the Johannesburg high court heard yesterday.
Sivhidzho’s legal counsel, Advocate Christo Meiring, told the court that when the deceased’s father, City Press editor-in-chief Mathatha Tsedu, visited her in the police cells, she pleaded with him to hire a private investigator .
However, Tsedu denied ever having such a conversation with Sivhidzho, pictured.
“All I asked her was if she had been involved in my son’s murder, she said no, and I left it there,” said Tsedu.
Meiring also said Sivhidzho will deny that she conducted interviews with journalists at her husband’s murder scene. But Tsedu referred to a sound clip that was played out on SAFM the morning after the incident, saying that the clip had been recorded at the scene.
The trial continues.
