A co-accused in the trial against alleged underworld gang boss Nafiz Modack said that the slain top cop Charl Kinnear planned a grenade attack on his own home in 2019 in an elaborate plot to kill Modack.
The accused, along with Modack and 13 others, face 122 charges, most of which centre around Kinnear’s murder in September 2020.
State witness captain Trevor Shaw is being cross-examined about evidence related to three botched attacks on Kinnear before his eventual murder.
Yannick Adonis insists the Anti-Gang Unit (AGU) roped him in to assist in planning a grenade attack on Kinnear.
Adonis faces charges of conspiracy to commit murder related to his alleged involvement in three botched attacks on Kinnear, who was head of the AGU at the time.
Adonis alleges that Kinnear planned the attack on his home because he knew Modack had the same plot to take him out.
He claims Kinnear planned to arrest Modack for the grenade attack and when he resisted, he would be shot dead.
Meanwhile, Shaw told the court Kinnear’s former colleague, General Andre Lincoln will have to testify about Adonis’ allegations.
The trial continues.
