Prosecutor Amanda Bester also asked the Bloemfontein high court for life sentences for Kunene's accomplices - Mumukeleni Khoza and Mphakamiseni Khumalo.

The convicted men were also found guilty on a charge of kidnapping.

Judge MH Rampai found that the three killers drove with Hume to a dirt road near Kestell in Free State in 2007 and then murdered her before setting her vehicle alight. - Sapa
