Police Minister announced that 5 people were arrested in connection with the 2014 murder of Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa. Police say they have made a breakthrough in the ongoing case. The incident was initially understood to be a case gone wrong, but the potential killer or killers had not been identified until the recent implementation of new cold case techniques into the murder.
