In 2021, Anele Tembe fell to her death from the tenth floor of a Cape Town hotel. According to AKA, the couple had an argument just moments before her fatal fall.

However, the leaked letter from the Tembe family’s attorneys to the National Prosecuting Authority revealed a different side of the story.

The family believes that AKA allegedly pushed Anele off the hotel balcony. They also claim that he partied and drank with friends after her death, ignored her for 20 minutes while she was still alive, and even cleaned up blood in the hotel room, possibly to hide evidence of an altercation.

Despite the initial decision not to prosecute anyone following the inquest, the NPA has now decided to revisit the case. The investigation into Anele Tembe’s death has always remained active, according to Western Cape police spokesperson Captain Frederick Van Wyk.
