Some of the charges date back to 2006. 

He is currently out on R10 000 bail. 

"You are warned to be back at court on the 11th of December at 8:30,” Magistrate Bettie Khumalo said. 

“It’s still a remand because there are further particulars being sorted by your legal representative, and as well as the state needs more time to consult with the witnesses."

"So, I'm of the view that I don't want any excuses from both parties that on the next court date, a trial date has to be set because investigations have already been concluded, so there is no point in wasting time."
