Abubaker Adams and Vuyisani Zengethwa have been identified as the alleged shooters.
Shireen Matthews is accused of orchestrating the alleged hit.
The other two suspects, Brian Booysen and Wanay Farao, allegedly organised, supplied, and smuggled the guns into the court building.
"The prosecutor did indicate in court that when we return on May 29, we may be able to add more people on the docket which means that the investigation is still open it's still continuing," said NPA Western Cape spokesperson Eric Ntabazalila.
