## Resource

Amongst others, Joe 'Ferrari' Sibanyoni and Bafana Sindane appeared before the Kwaggafontein Magistrate's Court for charges of extortion and other serious allegations. The case was shockingly struck off the roll by the Magistrate on Monday after the state prosecutor wasn't able to attend the court's proceedings. We unpack this and the response from the NPA in this analysis episode.
