Fose left her home on May 31 and did not return.
Her mutilated body was found dismembered in Roodepoort’s Durban Deep on June 1.
Gontsa said on the morning of May 31, Mnisi went to buy food for their children in Dobsonville.
He then returned around 11am and told her that he was going to Daveyton.
Gontsa who has been in a relationship with Mnisi for three months, said she did not know who he was meeting in Daveyton.
“I saw him again around 7pm when he arrived at (her) house. I know so because I am on chronic medication and I take my medication at 7pm.
“He came back to my place but remained outside. But he couldn’t come in because at that time the father of my child was there. So I met him (Mnisi) outside. I told him I will inform him when my baby daddy leaves. Five minutes later my baby daddy left and I told him to come back,” she said.
“He came to the house. I dished for him bread and beef stew. He ate and we locked up and went to sleep.”
Gontsa said her two children were also in the house.
According to Sowetan’s sister publication TimesLIVE, Mnisi claimed to have been in Daveyton, some 60km away, on the day of the incident.
However, the state advocate Shadrack Temeki said on June 1, Gontsa’s neighbour Annelisa – who visited her that day and told her about a body being found – said in her statement that she never saw Mnisi.
However, Gontsa said Annelisa saw Mnisi and that she even has a voice recording from her sister confirming the same.
She said Mnisi was home the whole day and played music from 8am until the afternoon.
The case continues.
