After more than two decades of silence, the man behind one of South Africa’s most shocking crimes has finally spoken. Luyanda Mboniswa, who was convicted of murdering former First Lady Marike de Klerk, breaks his silence in The Confession: The Marike de Klerk Murder.
In the exclusive interview with journalist Annika Larsen, Mboniswa opens up about the dark events surrounding the brutal killing that stunned the nation in December 2001. For years, he remained quiet — his motives and full story locked away behind prison walls. Now, 22 years later, he claims to reveal “the truth” that both the court and the country never heard.
Marike de Klerk, ex-wife of former South African President F.W. de Klerk, was found murdered in her Dolphin Beach apartment in Cape Town. The case gripped the nation, not only because of her high profile but also for its chilling brutality.
Mboniswa’s confession promises to shed light on what really happened that night — and why. The revelation is expected to reopen painful memories of a crime that once shocked South Africa to its core.
