#KestellFarmMurder: Court case postponed─── 15:38 Mon, 18 Jul 2022
The case of the two suspects arrested for the Lismor farm murders outside Kestell has been postponed to Wednesday.
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson, Phaladi Shuping, told OFM News that this case was reportedly postponed to allow suspects time to get legal representation for their bail hearing, as they reportedly had no legal representation in court on Monday morning.
“What I can confirm is that the two men, who are Kamohelo Motankisi and Lerato Selepe, appeared in the Kestell Magistrate's Court, facing 12 counts which include 7 counts of murder, 2 counts of rape, 1 count of robbery with aggravating circumstances, 1 count of housebreaking with the intention to steal, and theft, and 1 count of the illegal possession of a firearm.”
