THE themes of crime, corruption and betrayal of the highest level will take centre stage in the forthcoming Mzansi Magic’s new drama series titled Code 13, set for premiere on April 14 at 8pm on Dstv’s Mzansi Magic Channel 161.
Set in the gritty heart of Johannesburg, Code 13 follows the story of Bheki Ndlovu played by Zolisa Xaluva a no-nonsense Jozi detective with a knack for connecting the dots and solving complex cases.
Together with a hard-edged police unit, Xaluva is tasked with recapturing six of the city’s most dangerous criminals who escaped from a police van.
This already challenging case presents him with hurdle at every turn in his efforts to reveal a web of corruption, betrayal and secrets at the very top.
Moreover, it is not only Xaluva’s work life that seems to be “adventure-packed”, but his personal life also plays a significant role as he tries to balance the two, especially when his love interest turns out to be a colleague.
The big question is, can Xaluva trust his team of over-qualified and egotistical law enforcers to recapture the dangerous escapees and expose a web of corruption that stretches to the highest levels of power before the city descends into irreversible anarchy?
Produced by Seriti Films, the series, also stars Lunathi Mampofu as Bongi Nkosi, a police detective, and Zolisa Xaluva’s love interest, Aluve Mjali as Marcus “Mamba” Moagi as a highly skilled hacker, and Primo Baloyi as Veli “Veja” Mohalanyane who is deeply connected to the community which makes him a reliable informant.
Also, to star in the series are Zikhona Bali as Azania, Saint Seseli as Patrick, and Thami Mngqolo as Dr Pitso.
