Mbuaso Mandela Rape
Court proceedings in the rape case against the grandson of the former president Nelson Mandela have been remanded to Monday because the magistrate who is hearing the case was not present on Friday.

The rape case against the grandson of late former president Nelson Mandela has been postponed to Monday to amend bail conditions.

The 24-year-old father of three made a brief appearance at the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Friday after being accused of raping a 15-year-old girl.

The prosecutor requested a postponement for the presiding officer to be present as bail conditions needed to be amended.

Dressed in a navy jacket and black trousers, the grandson nodded in agreement.

During his bail application, he requested that he “not be treated as a Mandela but a normal citizen of the country”
