SUSPECT: INSIDE MBUSO MANDELA'S PAST AND PRESENT TROUBLES
The Mandela name trended for all the wrong reasons this week when Mbuso Mandela was arrested in a raid at his late grandfather and iconic statesman Nelson Mandela's former Houghton home in Johannesburg.
The 33-year-old Mbuso was arrested on Wednesday along with a woman believed to be his girlfriend and three other men after the hijacked vehicle of an Uber driver was found on the premises.
Only four suspects were in the dock in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court on Friday.
Prosecutor Tshepo Mahange Ka Mzizi told magistrate Johan Herman that the state decided not to add the fifth arrested suspect [Mandela's grandson] due to a lack of evidence while police conducted further investigations.
The four stand accused of robbing, kidnapping and assaulting an Uber driver and hijacking his vehicle on Louis Botha Avenue in Oaklands last Wednesday morning.
The case has been postponed until 17 February.
