The case against three Burundi men charged with
kidnapping and raping a teenager in Cape Town has been postponed, and a bail
hearing is set for December.
The men appeared briefly in Wynberg Magistrates
Court on Tuesday. They also face charges of robbery and extortion. A new
lawyer, Livhuwani Nemugumoni, is now representing them after their previous
lawyer stepped down.
The suspects are accused of forcing a
14-year-old girl into their car in Samora Machel on November 13. Police found
the suspects four days later in a house in Parow and rescued the girl.
She has since been reunited with her family.
The men are expected to request bail on December 11.
