A 61-year-old serial rapist’s review judgement has been postponed to Friday by the Cape Town regional court.

Alwyn Menziwa made a brief appearance before magistrate Eric Mbiyo on Tuesday.

In 2006 he applied for review of his sentence after serving more than 10 years in Pollsmoor.

Menziwa was accused of raping a nurse in Valkenberg where he was a patient.

The application was sent to the Cape High Court by his legal representative Andre Parries.

According to a daily paper, Mbiyo says that the case was postponed, although the review judgment was ready, it had not yet reached his office by Tuesday.
