The cops had not found the spent cartridges of the bullets supposedly fired on former African National Congress youth leader James Nkambule on Tuesday night. The shots were apparently fired at his house in Barberton, Mpumalanga, while Nkambule sat watching videos with a friend.
Nkambule complained that the police had not visited his house to search for spent cartridges on Wednesday. But on Thursday morning while visiting the scene, Mail & Guardian reporters discovered two spent cartridges behind Nkambule’s house. The first spent cartridge was discovered by Nkambule, who walked almost directly to it.
Nkambule claims his life is under threat because of the role he has played in the probe into the alleged plot to oust the president.
