The case against 21 year old murder accused of killing six woman, was suspended until 21 October.
This is after the suspect made
a court appearance on Tuesday, following last week’s gruesome discovery of the alleged
sex workers in Johannesburg. Police were alerted by worker who found the bodies
at a car repair workshop while investigating the disappearance of one sex
worker who was allegedly last seen with the suspect.
According to reports, some of
the bodies were found with their hands tied, also believed to have been in the
building for a long period. The National Prosecuting Authority of South Africa
(NPA) said that delays in the murder case, does not augur well for public
confidence in the institution, after they failed to conduct an identity parade
last week. During his appearance on
Tuesday, many South African women's rights groups and sex workers demonstrated
outside court.
As investigation are still
ongoing the suspect currently only faces one count of murder.
