The Port Elizabeth High Court has sentenced two Cape Town men to 22-years in jail for the murder of a Jeffreys Bay businessman in 2010.

Judge Xoliswa Bacela sentenced 43-year old Mthobeli Nkonki and 41-year old Thanduxolo Nzangwa to an additional 10-years for attempted robbery with aggravating circumstances on Friday.

The sentences will run concurrently.

Sixty-one-year-old Gert Coetzer was shot during a robbery at a cash loan business in May three years ago.

A third accused, Mzuvukile Qunta, of Jeffreys Bay, was acquitted, while a fourth accused died while awaiting trial.
