The sentencing of Manana’s co-accused was also postponed in another courtroom to November 16.
The matter will resume on Wednesday.
Manana pleaded guilty to two counts of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm for hitting two women at a Cubana nightclub earlier this year.
The public uproar eventually led to him stepping down from his position as deputy minister.
