Convicted serial killer and former police officer Nomia Rosemary Ndlovu appeared in the Kempton Park Regional Court on October 21 alongside her former colleague, Nomsa Mudau, where both face charges of conspiracy to commit murder.

The matter, previously postponed on June 5 for a Section 174 application, resumed with advocate Malotane calling Mudau to the stand to testify in her defence.

Taking the stand, Mudau pleaded not guilty to all charges, maintaining that she had never conspired or intended to commit any crime.

“I didn’t do it, and I never intended to do it,” she told the court.

According to the State, in February 2018, Mudau allegedly conspired with witnesses who had already testified in the case to commit murder, specifically to kill her husband, Justice Mudau.

However, the accused denied the allegations.

“I never conspired to kill Justice, nor did I have any intentions to kill him,” Mudau said.

She explained that during that period, she worked as a Sergeant at Norkem Park SAPS, where she had served for 13 years.

On the day in question, she was at home preparing for her night shift when she received a call from an unknown man claiming to be a prophet named Njebe.

Mudau testified that the man accurately described personal details about her, including her name, workplace, the vehicle she drove, and her husband’s place of work, which led her to believe he might indeed be a prophet.

“He said he knew my husband, that he drives a BMW and works at the airport. He also told me he knew about the problems in my marriage that my husband assaults me,” Mudau said.

She confirmed to the court that her marriage was troubled and that she had previously opened several assault cases against her husband in Thembisa, the first in 2014.

A protection order was later issued following repeated incidents of domestic violence.

Mudau told the court that the so-called prophet suggested they meet in person so that he could “help” her.

They arranged to meet near Mooifontein Cemetery, and she agreed to stop by before her shift at around 17:00.

“When I arrived, I saw a man standing by the roadside who stopped me. I rolled down my window, and he called me by name. I believed him because he had already shared things about my life that were true,” she said.

During their conversation, the man allegedly told her that he knew she had “poured something” into her husband’s food, a claim Mudau denied.

She recounted an incident involving a lunch box her husband had used and later left in the car for several days.

When she eventually found it, the food inside had turned green, which she described as evidence of spoilage rather than poisoning.

“Even a child wouldn’t eat it. I didn’t ask him about it because he got angry easily,” she said.

According to Mudau, the supposed prophet then offered to “help her” by killing her husband, a proposal she immediately rejected.

“I told him, ‘When you called, I thought you were a real prophet who could help me spiritually, but this is not what I expected.’ I refused and left for work,” she testified.

She said she was dressed in a full SAPS uniform at the time, including a bulletproof vest, and carried her service firearm.

After that encounter, she said, she never spoke to the man again until he later appeared as a State witness during her disciplinary hearing.

The case was postponed to December 3 for further evidence and continuation of the hearing.
