Lucky Mudau has been sentenced to 25 years direct imprisonment, suspended for 5 years, for killing his girlfriend, Lebo Monene. 

Mudau a former policeman will serve his sentence from home because there is no facility that can accommodate him in his quadriplegic state.

However, Judge William Karam dismissed the request and said the court had had expert testimonies that attested and proved Muda could not stand or walk.

Karam added the court had spent much time considering the sentence to be handed down to Mudau.

“There were numerous aggravating factors in this matter. The accused intended to kill the deceased. Most of the shots were fired into the head.”

However, he added no correctional services facility could admit a quadriplegic person in South Africa.
