Panayiotou murder accused back in court


Thirty one-year-old Luthando Siyoni made another brief appearance in the Port Elizabeth magistrate's court on Thursday in connection with the murder of PE teacher, Jayde Panayiotou.

Algoa FM News reporter, Raahil Sain, has more on this story.

Siyoli shyed away from the cameras and entered the court room covering his face with his right hand.

He is being represented by Attorney Johan van der Spuy who could not be present.

State Prosecutor Marius Stander requested that Siyoni be detained at Humewood Police Station.

The case against him was postponed until the 19th of June for further investigation.

This will be on the same day that Jayde's husband, 28 year-old Christopher Panayiotou and 30 year-old Sizwezakhe Vumazonke are expected to be back in court.

Luthando Siyoni appears in court covering his face from the media.
