In the “Cat” Matlala trial, a security guard testifies about an ambush in which Joe “Ferrari” Sibanyoni was attacked. The guard says he fired 15 shots at the gunmen who carried out the ambush. During the fourth day of the proceedings, the defence raises a discrepancy, stating that none of the casings linked to the guard’s reported firing were found at the scene. The exchange highlights a dispute over whether the guard’s account aligns with the physical evidence collected at the site of the incident. The court hears competing assertions: the guard’s testimony describes the number of shots he fired and his attempt to respond to the attackers, while the defence points to the absence of his casings among the materials recovered. The matter remains subject to further evidence and examination as the trial continues.
