A man accused of killing a mother and her two young children in Great Denham has admitted unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition in South Africa.

Alleged fugitive Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, 46, also pleaded guilty to contravening the Immigration Act at the hearing in Johannesburg Magistrates’ Court yesterday (Tuesday).

Nothabo Zandile Tshuma, 42, and daughters Natalie, 15, and Nala, five, were found in their home on Carnoustie Drive, Great Denham, on July 6 – their cause of death was blunt force trauma.

The Crown Prosecution Service has authorised three charges of murder against husband Tshuma, who also goes by the name of Mark.

The extradition proceedings in Johannesburg have been postponed until tomorrow (Thursday).
