IN CASE YOU MISSED IT | A University of Johannesburg graduate has been sentenced to 15 years in jail for stabbing and bludgeoning his flatmate to death with a hammer.

When his brother returned from work, he was shocked to find blood inside the flat, the NPA statement reads. Gamede lied that Ngema had been a victim of a robbery.

The Sowetan has previously reported that Gamede alleged that he killed Ngema in self-defence after Ngema attacked him with a knife. Gamede said this was after he had accessed his late friend’s foreign exchange account and traded with it. Sentencing him to the minimum 15-year jail term for murder, Ismail said that a precondition for the court to deviate from the prescribed sentence was that there must be compelling circumstances to permit the court to give the accused a fairly ordained sentence.
