The trio accused of killing Carte Blanche producer, Johann Botha and a friend are expected to appear in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday.
Thembi Mbatha,19, Nkosiyazi Phungula, 27, and Ntobeko Hlatshwayo,32, face charges of murder, armed robbery and possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition.
On August 11, the case was postponed for further investigation after State prosecutor Colleen Ryan told the court that they were still waiting for cell phone records and postmortem photographs.
Botha and his friend Swazi Werner were murdered at the Zebra Inn restaurant in Troyville on June 7.
The trio was allegedly seen on security footage initiating the crime and fleeing with a large sum of money that was in the safe of the establishment, owned by Werner.
