@KayaNews @NzingaQ Too little too late!

WATCH: Pavement repairs are underway, and sewage is being washed off the street outside the St Mary's Cathedral Church. This is where Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero will present the State of the City Address in the next two hours. KJ #KayaNews

@HeidiGiokos @pule_jones What an epic disaster! And if they don’t appear - then what…

JUST IN: NPA confirms the matter involving Joe Sibanyoni and others has NOT been re enrolled AS YET. Officials met till very late yesterday discussing the issue and what’s outstanding. They still waiting for the DPP in MP to issue a letter It’s most likely going to happen tomorrow or Friday. If and when the matter is re enrolled the accused won’t be re arrested- they will just have to appear in court. @eNCA #eNCA #JoeSibanyoni #BafanaSindane @pule_jones @Abramjee

@D_Molatoli It really is. We have too many untouchables 😩

@DiscerningDeb Me too Deb. We see small fish junior officials being arrested. We are starting to wonder if the seniors will ever get arrested, despite all this evidence we've all seen there. It's simply discouraging.

Kwaggafontein made me believe that the whole Justice System is rigged!! 😭 And there's nothing we can do about it. I reached that conclusion last night. I had been having my own suspicions like many other South Africans, but now no one can convince me otherwise. I'm beginning to doubt if #MadlangaCommission itself will change anything. In the end, all they will do is submit a report to the President. Nothing will come out of it. All these arrests, it is the NPA that must take the cases to court. What happened to the Prosecutor in Kwaggafontein? It seems everyone is told what to do, probably including the President himself. The Defense was a former NPA Boss. Do you think that was a chance appointment, we just happened to find the best lawyer in the land? 😅 Advocate Mothibi's people, as the new NPA Boss, acting in this strange manner with the issue of the missing prosecutor, the strange judgement of the Magistrate, the Justice Ministry jumping on board, statements flying all over the place, including the Parliament Justice Portfolio Committee Chair?! Everyone is placed in their positions like a soccer team? Mxm! Right now I feel, unless the Generals are thinking differently about leading us, I have lost hope that this government will give us justice. We are busy playing games here, diketo ka Sesotho. Until I hear from General Mkhwanazi again, I'll watch the Commission just for vibes.

@SABCNews @SABCNews_Radio They are NOT refugees!

WATCH | Some foreign nationals who are registering at the Diakonia Centre in Durban say they don’t feel safe and want the UNHCR to take them to a safe place as they are refugees.

@ReleGlo 😂😂♥️

Manje backflip kiss eyani? Kids flex differently 😂

@eNCA @Zama30162777 Well firstly they’re not refugees! Secondly, the Police are here for the protection of South Africans, not undocumented foreigners. If they are documented, they have nothing to fear.

[VIEWER QUESTION] What do you make of refugees calling for police protection amid growing calls for the removal of undocumented foreign nationals? #eNCA

@Nuna_zd @maghangeni This reporter is inflaming the situation here! The Police should tell her to back off. She’s making their job harder!

Ayi no, 30th June is around the corner they'll know what xenophobia really means. Good work from KZN SAPS

@ITguruuSA Durban ♥️

South Africa is a beautiful country don't let these illegal foreigners destroy this beauty 😍 ❤️ Which city is best to live in???

@eNCA If she’s documented, she has nothing to fear….

A Congolese woman is calling on the government for assistance as tensions rise over immigration issues. She is among hundreds of foreign nationals demanding protection amid growing calls for the immediate removal of undocumented migrants. Tune in to #eNCA, channel #DStv403.

@jackson_rem @tngobz Our Police are fed up and who can blame them 😭💙

KZN Police remains the best in the country. They removed the so-called refugees who were camping outside Durban Central Police station with force. Something you can never see in some parts of the country

Get a closer look at our new home kit 👀

@Patriot_S_A The exchange on Friday, the 15th of 2026: The prosecutor vs Magistrate.

@eNCA Considering… 🤦‍♀️

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) says it is considering reinstating the matter involving taxi boss Joe ‘Ferrari’ Sibanyoni and his three co-accused. Tune in to #eNCA, channel #DStv403

@Moloi_Herman1 The magistrate’s understanding of “unreasonable delay” would be interesting to hear… 🤨

Magistrate Tuletu Tonjeni used Section 342A(3)(c) of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of 1977 to strike the extortion case against taxi boss Joe Sibanyoni and his co-accused off the roll. What the Section Says If a court determines that a criminal trial has been subjected to an unreasonable delay, it is empowered to make various orders to eliminate the delay and prevent prejudice to the accused or the State. Key Legal Implications • Striking off the roll: If the accused has not yet entered a plea, the case can be removed from the court docket. • Re-instituting the charge: The State cannot simply re-open the case on a whim; it must obtain written authorisation from the Director of Public Prosecutions (formerly the Attorney-General) to restart proceedings. • Constitutional Rights: This section serves as a statutory mechanism to give effect to an accused’s constitutional right to a fair and speedy trial.

@Newzroom405 What is @Newzroom405 ‘s agenda! Grootes is clearly frustrated with the spokesperson’s answers because it’s not what he wants to hear!

[WATCH] KZN SAPS spokesperson Robert Netshiunda explains why the police had no choice but to remove a large group of immigrants, who gathered outside Durban Central Police Station for the past two days. #Newzroom405

🚨📢On 18 May 2026, the high-stakes bail proceedings against Joe "Ferrari" Sibanyoni and three co-accused—concerning organized multi-million Rand extortion and money laundering—collapsed at the Kwaggafontein Magistrate’s Court. The matter was summarily struck off the court roll following the absence of the state prosecutor. ⏬️ A rigorous legal dissection of the institutional failures, the manipulation of statutory frameworks THE SCHEDULING CONFLICT AND SYSTEMIC ASYMMETRY (THE CHRONOLOGY) The collapse of the matter was driven by a structural conflict between judicial scheduling and institutional management, characterized by a distinct legal double standard ⬇️ The Friday Record⏩️On Friday, 15 May 2026, State Advocate Mkhuseli Ntaba explicitly placed on the court record that he had a pre-existing, conflicting high-profile trial scheduled for Monday, 18 May 2026. ⏬️ Legally, a prosecutor cannot abandon an active trial in one division to attend a bail hearing in another. The Judicial Overrule➡️Chief Magistrate Tule-tu Tonjeni rejected the standard administrative request for a short postponement to align court calendars, unilaterally ordering the state prosecutor to appear on Monday morning. The NPA Administrative Failure➡️Once a magistrate forces a date despite an advocate’s recorded conflict, the statutory burden shifts to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) management. ⚠️The Mpumalanga Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) failed to deploy a standby or replacement prosecutor to cover the Kwaggafontein court room, leaving the state's chair empty. The Earlier Judicial "No-Show"⏩️ Earlier in the week, on Wednesday, 13 May 2026, the bail proceedings were completely derailed because the sitting magistrate failed to appear. Under South African law, a magistrate’s absence carries zero summary legal or criminal penalties; the matter is simply rolled over. Conversely, the prosecutor's subsequent absence was met with immediate, punitive criminal enforcement. DISSECTING THE WEAPONISATION OF SECTION 32 AND SECTION 342A ⚠️The court bypassed standard statutory investigations, utilizing rapid summary powers to force the matter off the roll➡️The Vacuum of Section 32: Section 32 of the NPA Act 32 of 1998 mandates that prosecutors serve the State impartially, in good faith, and without fear, favour, or prejudice. To rule that a prosecutor violated this oath requires a formal finding of bad faith or willful neglect.The Bypassing of Section 342A: Under Section 342A of the Criminal Procedure Act (CPA) 51 of 1977, a magistrate is legally compelled to conduct a formal inquiry into court delays, weighing the duration, the reasons, the complexity of the charges, and the prejudice to the parties. Abuse of Contempt Power➡️The Magistrate conducted no formal investigation, demanded no explanatory affidavits from the NPA, and refused to hear the state's reasons regarding the double-booking. Instead, the court relied on the prosecutor's late arrival on Friday as a pretext, treated Monday's absence as direct contempt of court (contempt in facie curiae), issued an immediate criminal warrant of arrest for the prosecutor, and struck the case off the roll.
