It was guided by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions in the Northern Cape, senior advocates, and senior prosecutors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As investigations are ongoing, additional arrests and charges might be added to the current case, Senokoatsane said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The matter was adjourned for Legal Aid services and postponed to 31 May. All accused are remanded in custody until their next court date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In another unrelated case, an 18-year-old teenager has appeared in the Galeshewe District Court this week, where he is facing a charge of murder. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>He is accused of having stabbed and killed a 16-year-old. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senokoatsane said on 29 April the accused was fighting with another person when he went home, only to return with a knife. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon his return, he found the victim standing at a gate and stabbed the victim with the knife. The victim was certified dead at the hospital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The matter was reported to the police and the accused was arrested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The case has been postponed to Monday, 8 May, for possible bail application, and the accused is remanded in custody until his next court appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In yet another unrelated case, Ishmael Modise (49) from Barkly West has recently appeared in the Delportshoop Magistrates\u2019 Court on a charge of murder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The accused is alleged to have killed his 61-year-old girlfriend after an altercation. It is alleged that on 30 April the two were at a tavern when they started arguing. The victim left the tavern and made her way home. The accused apparently followed her and was later seen with blood-stained clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The matter was reported to the police. They visited the home of the victim where they found her shack on fire with a body inside. The accused was arrested and charged with murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The matter has been postponed to Monday, 8 May, for possible bail application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the seriousness of the charge in this Schedule 5 matter, the prosecution will be opposing bail, Senokoatsane said. The accused is remanded in custody until his next court appearance. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A total of 19 members of the Hollanders gang appeared in the Kimberley

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
