A correctional services department decision to transfer the AKA murder-accused Ndimande siblings to the Ebongweni supermaximum facility in Kokstad from Westville hampered their consultation with their defence.
This is according to defence counsel advocate Simphiwe Mlotshwa at the Durban magistrates court on Friday when his clients Siyabonga and Malusi Ndimande made a virtual appearance.
The pair were due to make their third appearance in connection with the deaths of Kiernan AKA Forbes, who was killed alongside his celebrity chef friend Tebello Tibz Motsoane, outside the now defunct Wish restaurant in February 2023.
