# City of Johannesburg forensic investigator Zenzele Benedict Sithole, who was assassinated on his way home, has been laid to rest. Sithole was on the verge of cracking JMPD’s ‘guns for hire’ syndicate. He was part of the city’s Group Forensics and Investigation Services, investigating fraud, corruption, and maladministration. Allegedly, metro guns were hired by criminals for cash-in-transit heists, aided and abetted by members of the police department. Joburg mayor Kabelo Gwamanda has called for the arrest of the perpetrators.
