United Kingdom (UK) fugitive Ndodana Tshuma is expected back in South Africa’s (SA) court in Johannesburg, Gauteng Province, this morning.
The Zimbabwean born British national is in custody in SA after he abandoned his bail application.
Tshuma pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of a firearm, ammunition, and immigration offenses in SA.
However, subsequent plea and sentencing proceedings at his last court appearance last month, were delayed after his defence attorney reported that Tshuma claimed not to remember signing the plea agreement or pleading guilty.
Following his statements of memory loss and complaints about lack of sleep, court proceedings were postponed for further instructions and potential mental health evaluations.
Tshuma is wanted by British police over the alleged murders of his wife Nothabo Zandile and two daughters, Natalie and Nala in Bedford, in England.
SA authorities will prioritize concluding the domestic firearm and legal cases before processing his extradition back to the UK.
