Myeni was arrested together with Trevor Mathenjwa, a former Bosasa executive. They were later released on R10 000 bail each. The man accused of killing father-of-two Hilton Pretorius in a bloody parking lot brawl in Klerksdorp earlier this month bolted out of the country shortly after Pretorius succumbed to his injuries in hospital.
