29-year old Myeni was shot and killed in a confrontation with police in Honolulu in Hawaii, United States, in April. The incident happened after police responded to a report of a burglary in progress at a location near his home.
Myeni’s body arrived in South Africa on Saturday. KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala is expected to speak at the memorial service. Myeni’s widow, Lindsay, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Honolulu police.
