The case against a 44-year-old American woman, who has been on the run since 2009, was postponed to September 19, to allow the State to get the formal extradition documents from the United States.
The woman, who was arrested in a rental house in Brakpan, on Wednesday morning, last week, made a second appearance in the Brakpan Magistrates Court yesterday (Thursday).
She was arrested by members of the extradition unit of Interpol.
