Johannesburg – A KwaZulu-Natal taxi boss has been linked to the assassination of businessman Wandile Bozwana, said the Hawks on Wednesday.
Hawks spokesperson Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi said a warrant of arrest for Senzo Mncube, who owns several taxis in KwaZulu-Natal, was issued recently.
"He has been linked through our investigations, but we believe that he was part of the men that were caught in the matter," Mulaudzi said.
According to Mulaudzi, Mncube owns several taxis that are not registered under his real name.
Bozwana was killed in a hail of bullets in 2015 on the N1 Garsfontein off-ramp.
Police said at the time that the Clio driven by Bozwana's female companion was stationary at the traffic light at the off-ramp, when a BMW M3 pulled up next to them. A man jumped out and started pumping bullets into the car. The man jumped back into the BMW, which sped off.
