It has been learnt that the BMW X6 which was at the centre of a controversy between murdered Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, Senzo Meyiwa and his girlfriend Kelly Khumalo has been repossessed.

According to the information that was released at the time, when Senzo and some friends that were at Kelly’s place, were leaving, two men entered the house and demanded money. During the chaos that ensued, somebody is said to have bumped into the gunman resulting in the gun going off and killing Senzo. Two other shots were fired outside the house as the robbers were making their getaway. Senzo was said to have been carried by friends and neighbours to hospital where he died on arrival.
