The case against the teenager accused of Deveney Nel's murder in Caledon has been adjourned to 16 October for further investigations.
The 17-year-old, whose name cannot be
disclosed, appeared briefly in court on Wednesday and is accused of stabbing
16-year-old Nel to death a month ago.
Her body was found in a storage room on the
grounds of Overberg High School during a sports event.
Eric Ntabazalila of the National Prosecuting
Authority said that further forensic and digital investigations are needed.
Community members continue to support Nel's
family, holding placards outside the court chanting "justice for
Deveney." Activist Hein Wyngaard mentioned the impact of the incident on
their town.
