Longwe Twala, the son of veteran music producer Chicco Twala has been rearrested after failing to appear in court last month.
This was confirmed by the South African Police Service on Tuesday.
“We can confirm that Longe Twala was arrested this morning in Diepkloof, Soweto, after a warrant of arrest was issued for him,” said Colonel Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi.
He will appear at the Randburg Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday for contempt of court.
Twala was arrested earlier this year for breaking into his father’s home and stealing items worth R200 000.
He appeared in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court in Johannesburg where his lawyer argued he was not a flight risk and would attend all court proceedings in the matter.
