Johannesburg - Trevor Noah has denied any knowledge of his "cousin" being murdered.
The Sunday Times on Sunday reported that his cousin was found burnt to death in a veld and had also been stabbed several times.
The paper claims Trevor's granny confirmed the death.
But the man himself has not only denied it, he also says his family has no knowledge of the so-called incident.
Take a look at his response to the report...
Thanks to some crafty journalism my family and I have spent the whole day trying to figure out if one of us died. #awkward

Don't always believe what you read. This is something I learned from aliens when I travelled to Mars last year.
