Second-hand shop owner expected to seek bail over runner's smartwatch
Kenneth Chibuzor, a Kempton Park second-hand shop owner, is expected to apply for bail in the Kempton Park Magistrates' Court. He and two co-accused face charges over a smartwatch the State says belonged to murdered runner Elizabeth "Tsontso" Moselakgomo.
Chibuzor, a Nigerian citizen, faces charges that include money laundering and theft. The State also says he broke the Second-Hand Goods Act. His co-accused are Stephen Sekhukhune and Danial Anthony Moat. Moselakgomo's body was found in Rhodesfield, Ekurhuleni, on 12 September.
The State alleges Chibuzor paid R900 for the smartwatch to an unidentified person. It says he then sold it to Sekhukhune. Sekhukhune allegedly registered it to his Gmail account after the profile information and settings of the dead woman had been erased.
The State further alleges that Sekhukhune sold the device to Moat for R4 000. Moat allegedly advertised it on social media and sold it for R4 000 to a fourth person. Sekhukhune and Moat each have bail of R10 000.
