Zakariyah Noble, 6, was shot and killed in Hanover Park.

The three men accused of murdering 6-year-old Zakariyah Noble in October during a gang shooting in Hanover Park, Cape Town, have all been denied bail. 

Riaan Matthews, Keanan America and Chandler Harper appeared in the Athlone Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday for their bail application, following their arrest by the police's Anti-Gang Unit mere days after Zakariyah was shot dead in Rywood Road on 16 October. 

At the time, Western Cape police said Noble had sustained a gunshot wound to the chest when he was caught in crossfire between rival gangs.
