Karabo Mokoena accused denied bail
Updated | By JacarandaFM News
Sandile Mantsoe, who stands accused of murdering Karabo Mokoena, has been denied bail in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court.
The 22-year-old Mokoena's burnt body was found in a veld in Lyndhurst, north-east of Johannesburg in April.
Mantsoe is charged with premeditated murder and defeating the ends of justice.
Magistrate Carlo Labuschagne delivered the ruling.
"The court is satisfied that the respondent presented sufficient evidence that there is a prima facie case on murder charges and that this evidence also indicate a motive to substantiate the submissions by the respondent that this was a premeditated murder, which was most likely committed by the applicant," says Labuschagne.
The case has been postponed to 28 July for further investigations.
