CCTV Exists — But the Mystery Remains Around DJ Warras’ Death
Surveillance footage undeniably played a central role in the investigation into Warrick “DJ Warras” Stock’s murder on December 16, 2025. Police confirmed early that multiple cameras — including newly installed systems at Zambezi House and municipal CBD feeds — captured portions of the incident. Yet, as of December 31, 2025, the public has seen none of it, only hearing fragmented descriptions that have sparked widespread skepticism and calls for release.

Authorities described the footage showing three suspects “colluding” beforehand: one waiting near Warras’s car, another possibly in a security uniform disguise, and the primary shooter — a short man with dreadlocks — approaching and firing multiple shots as Warras parked and exited his vehicle. Some reports added chilling details, like the gunman returning to the scene amid bystanders.

The attack was unmistakably targeted: nothing stolen, Warras’s firearm unused, linked to threats over his Imperium Ops work reclaiming hijacked buildings, including five recent protection orders.
Arrests followed on December 22 in Soweto, but only one suspect — 44-year-old South African Victor Mthethwa Majola — faced charges of premeditated murder and conspiracy in his December 24 court appearance. Charges against the second (a woman) were withdrawn for insufficient evidence. Majola alleged police assault, and the case postponed to January 6, 2026.

Here’s the core mystery: Majola bears no resemblance to the dreadlocked shooter described consistently by police. Social media erupted with demands for footage release, noting how quickly public tips identified unrelated criminals (like recent phone snatchers). Why withhold clear evidence that could aid capturing remaining suspects?
Witness accounts vary — some late, possibly from fear — and angles allegedly “don’t line up” fully, with critical moments obscured or stopping short. In a monitored CBD, expectations for comprehensive coverage run high, yet fragments dominate public knowledge.
For Warras’s loved ones, these gaps prolong agony. His December 23 funeral and prior memorial in Rosebank drew heartfelt tributes to a devoted father of three, mentor, and fearless voice.

Sometimes, what’s not seen — unreleased frames, mismatched descriptions — matters more, eroding trust amid South Africa’s crime woes and hijacked buildings epidemic. As 2026 dawns, the CCTV holds potential clarity, but the mystery endures.
