WRand murder accused cop back in court
A police officer accused of shooting dead a protester will appear in the Roodepoort Magistrate's Court on Thursday.
In his previous appearance, Malusi Maila's matter was postponed for further investigations.
Magistrate Delise Smith at the time said the director of public prosecutions had to decide whether the matter would be heard in the
high court or not.
Maila was one of four police officers arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of Tshepo Babuseng, 28, but was the only
one charged with murder.
Babuseng was shot dead when residents of Durban Deep, Roodepoort, barricaded roads with stones and burning tyres in a
protest in January over a lack of housing.
Maila was granted R5000 bail at a court appearance on January 28.
