The Cape Times reported that Jason Elias, 30, Rameez Felix, 29, and Shawaal Staggie, 26, appeared in court on Wednesday.

A fourth accused, Soegbudien Abvajee, 52, is serving the remainder of his sentence for a previous conviction, which came into effect when he broke his parole conditions with the murder allegation.
