Child rights group Women and Men Against Child Abuse reported that it was not happy about the postposition of the case against a former teacher accused of child abuse.
A case involving an 83-year-old man only known as Mr.
"W" was continued until June 6 in order to conduct additional
research. Mr. "W" made his second court appearance on Thursday.
Former Rondebosch Boys' Preparatory student known as Stephen
has accused Mr. "W" of assaulting him in 1988 while he was a teacher
there.
Miranda Jordan, the founding director of WMACA, expressed
fear that the postponement might also delay his extradition to the UK.
"We simply do not want this kind of a horrific pedophile
to carry on living as a free man in our country South Africa, in his retirement
home in Cape Town. He needs to go and answer and be held accountable for the
crimes that he has committed, that have had long-lasting effects on boys
between the ages of eight and twelve” added the founding director of WMACA, Miranda
Jordan.
