‘Pastry Princess’ killer to be sentenced Thursday

# The man convicted of murdering Thembekile Letlape, affectionately known as the ‘Pastry Princess’, will be sentenced on Thursday. Sibusiso Zitha appeared briefly in the Johannesburg High Court this morning. He pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing Letlape multiple times during an argument at her Fourways home last May, in front of their ten-year-old daughter. Her body was later discovered by her father, ActionSA member of parliament  Kgosi Letlape, after she had sent a distress message to her mother.
