JOHANNESBURG, October 17 (ANA) – Estate agent Vicky Momberg, who was caught on a cellphone camera referring to a police officer in derogatory terms, is expected to appear in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday.
In February, footage of Momberg, 48, calling a police officer the ” K” word while he was assisting her following a smash-and grab incident in North Riding in Johannesburg went viral.
On September 26, the court heard that Momberg might have to represent herself if her legal representatives are not present at her next court appearance. During a brief court appearance Magistrate Pravina Raghoonandan told Momberg that the court would not allow more postponements. Raghoonandan said that if her legal representatives were not present she would be have to deliver her closing arguments herself.
State prosecutor Yusuf Baba put it on record that Momberg had 21 days until her next court appearance and whether she proceeded with the same attorneys or not, he wanted the matter to proceed.
At Momberg’s previous appearance, the State said Momberg was seen on the video using the “K” word 48 times. She is facing four charges of crimen injuria.
