Nkululeko “Flabba” Habedi’s brother Tsepang told the court during sentencing proceedings on Wednesday that the family was finding it difficult to come to terms with his death. He said his brother united his family and was loved by everybody. Sindisiwe Manqele‚ 26‚ was found guilty in December of murdering Habedi‚ 37. He was a member of hip-hop group Skwatta Kamp. Sentencing proceedings in her case started on Wednesday in the Johannesburg High Court sitting in the Palm Ridge Magistrate's Court exactly a year after Habedi's death. Manqele stabbed him in the chest on March 9 last year in his home in Alexandra‚ Johannesburg. She pleaded not guilty to murder‚ saying she acted in self-defence during a fight between the couple. The trial continues.
