The alleged killer of two Mamelodi East extension 17 ladies will appear again in the Mamelodi Magistrate’s Court on 19 March 2025 for bail hearing.
Tebogo Mnisi (38) is alleged to have shot and killed Baleseng (21) and Tshiamo (22) Moramaga last year outside a pub in the far East of Mamelodi.
“Our hearts are aching, I nearly lost a nephew because of this guy who attempted to kill my nephew Desmond… and I must say the families of the two girls that he shot and killed won’t heal from their emotional wounds because what this guy did is something very horrible,” said Philemon Matlala whose nephew Desmond….was allegedly shot by Tebogo Mnisi in his private parts.
Member of the GBV brigade under Silverton Police station Helen, lamented the fact that the case has been postponed several times now and called for Tebogo… to be released so that they as community would deal with him thoroughly.
Aunt of the deceased ladies Nthabiseng Buthelezi also bemoaned the postponement of the case, saying each time they come to court the matter opens up old scars from which they are trying to heal.
“I am not happy at all, because we have given the prosecution all the evidence and information that they need and for the prosecution to say it is still looking for more evidence does not make sense at all because each time we see the killer of Tshiamo and Baleseng we get very hurt,” said Buthelezi.
ANC Women’s League Ward 23 branch Secretary in Mamelodi Ouma Chiloane told Tshwane Talks that the case has been dragging on for far too long now.
“What makes me sad is that the accused Tebogo Mnisi is clearly enjoying himself in jail because he has gained weight and looks handsome and we are calling for this case to be sped up so that we can find closure,” she said.
SANCO member Mmakosha Motsepe also criticised the postponement of the case.
“Our court system is very funny indeed because we are told that the police are still looking for post mortem results and obviously this will take time and there is a possibility that the case would be postponed again when it reconvenes on 19 March this year.,” she said.
Chiloane called upon the community of Mamelodi to come out in support of the deceased ladies Tshiamo and Baleseng Moramaga so that the Magistrate would see that as the community they are opposed to Tebogo Mnisi being granted bail.
Progressive Civic Congress Jack Simelane criticise the postponed of the case and calls for speed up of the case and for the community members to come more in numbers to support.
Mamelodi Magistrates court postponed the matter to 19 March 2026 for further investigation, J88 and postmortem.
