In March last year, Bheki Cele assured the public that police were working diligently to solve AKA’s murder investigation.

In September 2023, The South African reported that Cele revealed that the police had found the gun and getaway cars used in the successful plot to take out the rapper. Several cell phones from suspects were also said to have been confiscated by the police, Cele updated the public.

In December last year, IOL reported that Cele shed more light on the rapper’s case. He was quoted as saying: “They [the police handling AKA’s case] have found two people that I know for sure know very well what happened on that particular day [when AKA was killed]…We know who we are chasing… I get briefed every day about this matter. It is a matter that we can’t get to rest. And unfortunately, we can’t be giving a blow-by-blow of what is happening, but the progress is absolutely there.”

“Bheki Cele just calls a press conference [and comes] with a big hat to come and tell us [that] he knows the car and the gun. We are not interested in that. We are interested in that boy who pulled the trigger in front of a camera, killing a high-profile person,” Malema said.

“A high-profile person got killed in front of a camera and the whole world watched [and] till today we have not arrested those people,” the EFF leader continued.
