Political fixer Oupa Brown Mogotsi has secured a partial victory in his bid to obtain additional evidence from the state, with the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court ordering the prosecution to hand over cellphone records linked to witnesses in his attempted assassination case.
The ruling was delivered on Friday, 13 November 2026, following arguments over an application brought by Mogotsi under Section 205, as he seeks further information to prepare for his trial.
While the court granted some of the defence’s requests, it rejected others, emphasising the need to safeguard witnesses and their families.
The case has been postponed to 9 December 2026 for the state to comply with the court order.
