JOHANNESBURG, GAUTENG — In a dramatic turn of events, the lawyer defending Victor Majola, the man charged with the murder of popular DJ and media figure Warrick "DJ Warras" Stock, has asserted that his client has no connections to the heinous crime. Warras's tragic death unfolded on December 16, 2025, in Johannesburg's CBD, leaving fans and friends in mourning.
Majola made his court appearance at the Johannesburg Magistrates' Court on January 6, 2026, where his case was postponed. Outside the courtroom, his lawyer shed light on the charges, pointing out the lack of evidence against Majola, who is facing serious allegations of premeditated murder, which complicates potential bail options.
Lawyer's Defense and Court Proceedings
The defense team is prepared to argue for bail, with the lawyer expressing optimism about their case.
"There's nothing that links this particular accused to this particular case. There's a statement by one of the co-accused whose charges were withdrawn to say that she links Mr Majola to this particular crime. There's no prima facie evidence against the accused, and we believe that under special circumstances, he should be released on bail."
The Aftermath of DJ Warras's Death
- Social media erupted after Musa Khawula faced backlash for his remarks during Warras’s funeral on December 23, 2025.
- Majola’s background led to speculation regarding his motives, with some alleging he had ties to Warras’s neighborhood.
- Controversial commentator Slik Talk criticized Pearl Thusi's speech at the funeral, igniting further discussions.
- Nomalanga Shozi's call for donations to DJ Warras's sons sparked varied reactions from the public.
- Amidst the turmoil, Majola alleged police brutality during his arrest, but these claims were largely dismissed online.
Courtroom Tensions Rise
During Majola's court appearance on December 24, 2025, tensions flared as observers noted his body language being scrutinized by onlookers, including Chad Da Don's mother.
As the legal battle unfolds, the community continues to grapple with the loss of DJ Warras, and the scrutiny surrounding the case intensifies.
