Senzo Meyiwa Shooting: Suspect Images released
Police have offered a reward of 250,000 rand (£14,000; $23,000) for information about the attack. Meyiwa’s death has once again highlighted the high rates of violent crime in South Africa.
Before releasing the pictures, police had described two of the suspects: one said to be tall, dark-skinned and slender with dreadlocks; the other was said to be short, dark-skinned and well-built. The men demanded mobile phones and valuables while a third man remained outside.
National Police Commissioner Riah Phiyega told a press conference that Meyiwa was then shot once in the upper body as he moved towards the door. The three men then fled.
The footballer was declared dead on arrival at the hospital. His funeral is expected to take place on Saturday.
