CAPE TOWN - A previous bail application by alleged underworld gang boss, Nafiz Modack's co-accused number two, Zane Kilian, has implicated Modack in the murder of top cop, Charl Kinnear.
Kilian, along with Modack and 13 others, face 122 charges related to various crimes, including the murder of Kinnear.
Kinnear, who was investigating Modack at the time, was shot dead outside his Bishop Lavis home in September 2020.
State prosecutor Greg Wolmarens on Wednesday used one of Kilian's bail applications to implicate Modack in the murder of Lieutenant Charl Kinnear.
Wolmarens, who was cross-examining Kilian, presented the court with the bail application from November 2023.
He told the court how Kilian admitted Modack asked him to ping Kinnear on the day of his murder numerous times.
Kilian's statement shows Modack only stopped asking him to ping Kinnear a few minutes after the shooting.
Wolmarens also showed how Kilian's statement implicated co-accused, Ziyaad Poole, for phoning Kilian soon after the murder, with a threat to get rid of his cell phones.
The trial continues on Thursday.
