The law has caught up with a Gauteng man who disappeared for more than a year after posting bail in an Eastern Cape court.

Modise and his co-accused - Ofentse Setlhabi, 39, of Equistria in Pretoria, Harry Olebeng Matome, 42, of Mahoapane in Pretoria, and Fanuel Fani Mokgagane, 46, of Soshanguve in Pretoria - were initially arrested in a joint intelligence-led operation on the N1 outside Sasolburg in the Free State.Zenzile said Modise made a brief appearance in the Libode magistrate's court on Wednesday after his arrest.

“During their arrest in Sasolburg, an undisclosed amount of cash and a number of firearms were seized. Bail was successfully opposed but later the four suspects were released on R20,000 bail. Modise decided not to attend any court proceedings and a warrant of arrest was authorised by the court,” Zenzile said.The four men face several counts of robbery with aggravated circumstances, a count of attempted murder, unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition, and malicious damage to property.
