Bloemfontein - Closing arguments and verdict of the bail application of the four alleged right-wingers, accused of plotting to kill top ANC officials during the Mangaung Conference in December last year, has been postponed in the Bloemfontein Regional court.
 
The state alleges that they planned “The Battle of Mangaung” which involved eliminating the country's top leadership.

The men have denied the claims as well as alleged meetings that took place during which the plot was conceived. The investigating officer claims to have a strong case against the four.

OFM's Lani Fouché reports that the families of the accused are frustrated at the postponement and that it was once again an emotional day in court.
