Cradock murder case postponed


 Four men who are charged with the murder of 51-year-old Cradock woman, Hettie Philps, made another appearance in court on Friday.

The suspects, aged between 18 and 23, also face a string of house-robbery charges.

A large crowd of locals turned up again at court following a protest during their last court appearance.

According to the National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson, Tsepo Ndwalaza, their case was postponed.

He explains why

"There was information that the local legal aid board representatives are not available to do the case with the accused so the representatives for the accused will be sourced out of Cradock. That is why the case was postponed to sort out the legal representation of the accused"
