19-year-old Lungelo Sithole, accused of being involved in the murder of the 19-year-old Lusanda Mathabela in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, says he intends to plead not guilty.
Sithole was arrested together with his co-accused, Katlego Mokoena, after Mathabela was stabbed to death at her home in Mattafin late last year.
Sithole took to the stand and requested the court release him on bail.
