Teacher accused of sexual grooming back in court in December
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The case against a Sydenham teacher accused of sending inappropriate photos to a 14-year-old pupil has been postponed until December.
The 33-year-old man is facing charges of sexual grooming and sending explicit material to a minor.
He made a brief appearance in the Durban Magistrate's Court earlier today.
Proceedings were postponed due to an outstanding cyber report. The pupil's family says they're unhappy at the pace at which proceedings are unfolding.
The drama teacher - who is out on bail - is due back in court on December 4. The story made headlines in May after the girl's parents found explicit material on her phone.
Her parents have since moved her to a new school. The teacher had allegedly been texting the teenager since September last year.
