The defense team for Lucky Titus’ kidnappers withdrew their bail application on Tuesday (25 November).
Titus was kidnapped last month in Mohlakeng and was found dead a few days later in Carletonville. The community was outraged with his disappearance and death. They ventured down the path of mob justice.
As a result of the matter being withdrawn, the case has been transferred to the West Rand Regional Court and is scheduled to continue on Monday 8 December. The case now is recognised as a serious matter and is given over to a higher court.
On Tuesday community members of Mohlakeng gathered at the Randfontein Magistrates’ Court in a bid to show their support to Titus’ family.
Their gathering also was to show that they are standing against crime in Mohlakeng and will not tolerate it.
