Sources close to the investigations say there is now overwhelming evidence that will finally close the case.

According to City Press, investigators have submitted the docket to prosecutors to obtain warrants of arrests for al implicated in the murder.

However, no arrest has been made yet. The five alleged hitmen are currently serving time or awaiting trial for unrelated crimes.
