Two siblings from Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, who were convicted and found guilty of murdering a man who allegedly invaded their home on Christmas Day 2016, insist they are innocent.

Sthembiso “Pro” Ndlovu, 32, and his sister, Nokukhanya, 48, are now pinning their hopes on the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) after it agreed to hear their appeal application.

The couple were released on bail just over a week ago (June 21), after spending seven years behind bars for a murder they say they did not commit. The couple will remain free, pending the finalization of their appeal.
