South African police on Wednesday said it apprehended six suspects connected with the murder of popular rapper, Kiernan Forbes, popularly known as AKA.

This was revealed by KwaZulu-Natal provincial Police Commissioner, Lt Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, stressing that the suspects are to appear in court on Thursday.

He said; “It was clear that AKA was monitored from the airport and Tibz was not the intended target in the murder on Florida Road in Durban. We know they were paid for this.” 

Confirming the arrest, South Africa Police Minister, Bheki Cele disclosed that the murders of AKA and his friend were caught on Closed-Circuit Television cameras.

He said; “I hope South Africans will sleep better after this.

South Africa has one of the world’s highest murder rates with several entertainment stars among the victims.

AKA was murdered on February 10, 2023, while walking with a friend outside a popular Durban restaurant hours before he was to perform at a nearby club.

Until his demise, he won several awards in South Africa and was lauded globally. He earned Black Entertainment Television and MTV Europe nominations and he was honoured posthumously in the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards.
