TWO Richards Bay residents were arrested this week for conspiring to murder well-known Brackenham Pastor, Daniel Munsami.
Kishore Maniram (51) and Sunker Jugdeo (55) were arrested on Monday and appeared in the Richards Bay Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday, where they were granted bail of R1 000.
The case was postponed to 26 August for a regional court decision.
According to the charge sheet, the two accused conspired with Zwelathe Tembe in July and August 2011, and then Thulani Myeni between January and March this year to kill Munsami, the senior Pastor of New Life Church in Brackenham and the Director of Nkosi Community Projects, an outreach initiative that supports orphans and vulnerable children.
Richards Bay SAPS Communications Officer, Captain Debbie Ferreira, confirmed that Munsami opened a case in March and alleged he was at home when a man approached him and told him two men had given him money to kill him, but he decided to tell the pastor instead.
