The case against the man suspected of killing 4-year-old Bokgabo Poo has been postponed to February of 2023. He will therefore spend Christmas and New Year’s in jail.
On Monday, Ntokozo Zikhali made an appearance before the Benoni Magistrates Court. Charges against the 30-year-old man include rape, murder, perverting the course of justice, and mutilating a body.

This came after he was implicated in the young girl’s mutilation, murder, and rape. Zikhali is anticipated to remain in custody until his next appearance, despite his defence team’s lack of a commitment to filing a bail application.
On February 14, 2023, he will make an appearance before the same court. Before showing up for the alleged murder of Poo, he is anticipated to return to court for the rape case of the 9-year-old girl.
On 10 October, after she had been last seen at a park in Wattville, the young girl’s family had filed a missing person’s report.
But Tamboville police found her tiny, mutilated body. According to reports, poo was discovered by a woman who was sweeping her yard when she saw human toes sticking out of the ground.
However, Zikhali was taken into custody quickly after he was allegedly seen on camera stealing a child from a park.
Poo was only recently laid to rest. Due to the girl’s missing body parts, her family decided to postpone the burial. The parts are still missing.

Gogo Muntu Segage, the head of the community’s traditional healers, denied the claims that they use body parts in a Monday interview with eNCA outside of court.
“On behalf of all traditional healers, as chair of the organization, we are more worried… We are not killers – we are healers.
“We want to know where the body parts [are] and who is working with them and what are they going to do with these body parts because the only thing I know is that it is herbs that heal anybody, not body parts.
“On behalf of the traditional healers’ organization, we are going to fight,” she said.
