The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has provisionally withdrawn charges against five of the six men accused of killing eight people and seriously injuring three others at a house in Kwazakhele, Gqeberha, in January 2023.
Five men arrested in connection with a mass shooting at a birthday party in Kwazakhele earlier in 2023 will remain in custody for at least another six months while the state continues its investigations into the matter.
