Eden Park mother remains in custody amid postponement

Accused Joanne Swartbooi is expected to reappear in the Palm Ridge Magistrate's Court on December 15 for her formal bail hearing.

A 36-year-old Joanne Swartbooi will reappear on December 15 in the Palm Ridge Magistrate’s Court for her formal bail hearing.

Swartbooi briefly appeared on December 9 where her matter was postponed after being on the roll for about a month.

The accused’s matter has seen another postponement as a result of load-shedding and recording machines being down, making it impossible to proceed with her matter on record.

This is after the burned body of a man, said to be her 32-year-old partner, was found at a dumping site in Eden Park.
