They will also find out if they are eligible for bail on 14 March.
Dasen reported:
"The matter has been adjourned until March 6th for further investigation. A bail application will follow on the 14th. The other two suspects caught in eSwatini are yet to be extradited."
Mzansi feels positive about the case
The Megacy and many South Africans had their faith restored in the South African Police Services after the suspected killers got arrested. Commenting under Dasen's posts, this is what some people had to say:
@hlubizer:
"I understand why some family members on Chaos in Court lose it and end up attacking these guys."
@oom_Chris
"Who amongst them pulled a Trigger??"
@JeanMiaka:
"This case will restore my faith in the police."
@VendaVendor:
"The prison gang bosses must make them sing every AKA song every single day."
@FOREVERMATWALA:
"And you wanna tell me these people randomly woke up and decide oh let’s shoot AKA today? Did they even know him before being paid to murder him?! Yho I’m upset!"
