The 26-year-old appeared in the Temba Magistrate’s Court on Monday.

The accused appeared in the dock  for the first time since his arrest last Friday.

He allegedly stabbed his ex-girlfriend to death, and later confessed to her murder in a video posted on social media.

The body of 20-year-old Kgaugelo Marota was found lying next to a tavern with multiple stab wounds last Thursday.

The accused is also charged with attempted murder after he allegedly stabbed his current girlfriend.
