Mother expresses anger in court

A 43-year-old man appeared in the Bellville Magistrate’s Court on Friday on charges of rape and indecent assault.

This comes after the alleged kidnapping of two girls in Delft last month.

Magistrate Helma Smit had to reprimand an angry mother according to the Cape Argus. She is believed to have called the suspect ‘rubbish’ in court.

The Sate prosecutor opposed bail as the suspects had more warrants for his arrests.

The rape survivors are believed to be aged seven and 10.

The case was postponed until next month for a formal application.
