North West ANC councillor Tebogo Sepale, whose sexual videos with minor boys emerged on social media at the weekend, made a brief appearance in the Orkney magistrate's court on Tuesday.

"There could be more charges added. A final charge sheet will be finalised in the next court appearance.

"When he appears his legal representative will come and confirm that he or she will be representing him and a date for bail will be decided [on]," Mamothame said.Sowetan earlier reported that just three days before the videos surfaced, he allegedly sent a naked video of himself to an anti gender-based violence activist who was seeking an official letter from him which she would use to source funding for her organisation.

The woman opened a case of crimen injuria against Sepale last Wednesday, while the ANC in the province has since suspended him.
