Alleged sexual offender case drags on
The case of the alleged sexual offender who was arrested in 2013, is still under investigation.
The case against a man who allegedly had exposed himself publicly in 2013 has been postponed again for the umpteenth time.
The 32-year-old’s trial was due to kick off in the Roodepoort Magistrates’ Court on 7 July, but was postponed until 28 August for further investigation.
Earlier this year the court heard the suspect’s alibi after which the case was postponed for the investigating officer to review the information.
He stands accused of indecently exposing himself to underage girls in Krugersdorp and Roodepoort. He was arrested at his workplace in Kenmare.
Since his arrest in 2013, the charges of nine cases against him have been reduced to six, as some of the victims have decided not to testify.
The suspect pleaded not guilty early last year. There are currently four dockets and six complaints against him.
