Family members gathered outside Witbank Magistrate’s Court yesterday where Mr Tumi Modise appeared for the alleged murder of his wife, Ms Jessica Modise.
He appeared on Thursday, January 6 and the case was postponed to today (January 7) for a formal bail application because his attorney was not available.
Modise was arrested on the murder scene on December 24 after his wife was brutally stabbed to death at a garage.
Ms Modise was a well-known nurse at Highveld Hospital.
A colleague, who wishes to remain anonymous, said Ms Modise was a person never caught without a smile.
“Jessica was always so friendly and loved by everyone because of her God-fearing and humble nature. She was a true inspiration,” the colleague said.
