Modack says that a former associate also instructed Kilian to ping Kinnear

CAPE TOWN - Alleged underworld gang boss, Nafiz Modack, said that a former associate was also instructing co-accused Zane Kilian to ping slain top cop, Charl Kinnear.

Modack and Kilian, along with 13 others face 122 charges for various crimes, including the murder of Kinnear.

Evidence shows that Kilian pinged Lieutenant Charl Kinnear more than 2,000 times before his murder in September 2020.

Kilian insists that he only pinged on instruction from Modack and via a mutual associate, Renier van der Vyver, on behalf of Modack.

Modack's lawyer, advocate Bashier Sibda, told the court the instructions to ping Kinnear excessively came from Van der Vyver and had nothing to do with Modack.

The matter will be back in court on Monday.
