Despite his defense’s plea for release citing his role as sole provider for three kids and his mother, the court denied bail, citing serious risks: witness tampering, potential flight to Limpopo, public unrest following his house’s arson, and his alleged self-harm attempt. The magistrate ruled his release would undermine public trust in justice — no bail granted. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
