“A Drug Lord by Night, a DJ in the Spotlight - Entangled in a Missing Multi-Million Rand Syndicate”
DJ Sumbody’s Deadly Double-Cross and His Alleged Link to the ‘Big Five’ Criminal Network
The murder of DJ Sumbody was not a senseless act of violence it was a planned and deliberate hit, allegedly linked to one of South Africa’s most powerful drug syndicates, known as “The Big Five.”
According to sources, DJ Sumbody initially entered into an agreement with a notorious taxi boss, permitting drug distribution at his Ayepyep Pretoria nightclub in return for financial backing. But things changed. He later insisted the drugs could only be moved through his Cape Town branch. Once that venue launched, he pulled out of the deal entirely.
This move was seen as betrayal. DJ Sumbody held sensitive information names, money trails, and operational details regarding a drug consignment that had gone missing from police custody in KwaZulu-Natal, reportedly stolen by corrupt officers. That same stash later reappeared in Johannesburg’s club scene, sold at unusually low prices, raising alarms among the original owners.
Whether knowingly or not, DJ Sumbody found himself entangled in a dangerous web. His association with the operation made him a liability. Businessman Katiso “KT” Molefe, now a suspect in the murder, is believed to be deeply connected to the same network. It’s alleged that Molefe was among those who decided Sumbody had to be eliminated before he could reveal too much.
There’s nothing heroic about DJ Sumbody’s death or the criminal world he was reportedly part of. His decisions helped fuel the drug trade an industry destroying lives, crippling youth, and draining the soul of South African communities.
Live by the sword, die by the sword. His fate is a chilling reminder of the deadly cost of fast money and criminal ties. Drugs do not bring status they bring ruin. Those who profit from the suffering of others have blood on their hands.
Let this serve as a warning: Crime might sparkle at first, but it always ends in darkness. There are no shortcuts to lasting success. Choose your path and your circle wisely, your future depends on it.
There’s no glory in gangsterism. No honour in betrayal. And no future in fast riches.
