The case against the seven accused arrested in connection with a cash-in-transit robbery at One Tree Hill has been postponed to August 31.
They appeared in the Tonga Magistrate’s Court earlier today, August 30, for a bail application.
The Mpumalanga National Prosecuting Authority’s spokesperson, Monica Nyuswa, said the state would be opposing the application due to the seriousness of the charges.

They were all subsequently linked to the incident in One Tree Hill.
Following their appearance on August 31, the case was postponed to September 4 at the Tonga Magistrate’s Court for continuation of bail application.
