The 42-year-old parolee and convicted serial murder accused, Ayanda Dayi, was sentenced to four life imprisonment terms by the Wynberg Regional Court in the Western Cape on Tuesday for the murder of four men in separate incidents.

 

This sentencing follows the hard work and commitment of the investigating officers, Detective Lieutenant Colonel Adrian Pretorius and Detective Warrant Officer Bradley Davids.

 

Dayi will be remembered to be part of the gang that robbed a Sasko Bread Truck in Delt in May 2024.

 

According to police reports, in addition to the four life sentences, Dayi was sentenced to 15 years’ imprisonment for robbery with aggravating circumstances, three separate 15-year imprisonment terms for illegal possession of firearms, four years’ imprisonment for illegal possession of ammunition, and 10 years’ imprisonment for attempted murder.

 

The accused was also declared unfit to possess a firearm.

 

One of the murder incidents that shocked the nation was captured in a social media video clip. In the footage, three Sasko bread employees were seen travelling in a truck to deliver bread to a spaza shop in Delft along Symphony Way on 16 May 2024.

 

The accused and his co-accused were shown shooting at the victims, despite the victims appearing to surrender.

 

Earlier that same year, Dayi committed a double murder in Dunoon, where he shot and killed two men before hijacking their vehicle.

 

Dayi had previously been convicted of rape and sentenced to 18 years’ imprisonment in August 2002. He was on parole when he committed the four murder offences.

 

The Western Cape Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General (Adv) Thembisile Patekile, commended the investigating and prosecution teams for ensuring that justice was served.
