A suspects accused of kidnapping Abirah Dekhta will reappear in court

The six suspects accused of kidnapping an 8-year-old girl in Gatesville in November last year, will reappear in the Wynberg Magistrate's Court in Cape Town on Thursday.

Abirah Dekhta was on her way to school, when the incident occurred. She was found a few days later in a shack in Khayelitsha. The six suspects appeared in court last week, to apply for bail.

Two of the accused had earlier abandoned their bail applications. The six are facing various charges, which include kidnapping, attempted extortion and aggravated robbery.
