EXCLUSIVE #AneleTembe #AKA In the first-ever wide-ranging exclusive interview, Moses Tembe the father of late AKA's fiance, the late Anele Tembe, speaks to me on the 3rd anniversary of his daughter's death and the long wait for answers on how her body came to be found on the ground from the 10th floor of a Cape Town hotel. He tells me: - 'We wanted Kiernan (AKA) in the box as either a witness or suspect' - 'I object to anyone saying Kiernan killed our daughter. The evidence at the inquest into her death will tell us exactly what happened.' - 'Our hearts are shattered and gutted' - 'To see my daughter on TV covered in foil was traumatic' - 'At the time I knew she wouldn't strip naked and throw herself down' -' At the time we expected a prosecution' -' Police never approached him regarding AKA's death' And blames the NPA in the Western Cape for delay in the resumption of the inquest into Anele's death.
