Thobela Xoseni cut a confused figure as he stood in the dock on Wednesday, after being arrested in connection with last weekend's train fires at Cape Town station.
The tall thin man, in a worn black blazer, sharp beard and high cheekbones, rubbed his hair and wrung his hands as Magistrate Greg Jacobs addressed him at his first appearance in the Cape Town Magistrate's Court."I would advise you to apply for Legal Aid if you can't afford an attorney," he said.Jacobs heard from the prosecutor that it had been patrolling security guards who had smelled smoke at the station on Sunday afternoon and raised the alarm.
Legal Aid clients usually meet their lawyer for the first time over the wooden bars of a dock, and their conversations can sometimes be overheard, although this would fall under attorney-client privilege. A confused looking Thobela Xoseni appeared in court regarding the Cape Town train fire this Sunday. He was remanded to police cells until May 2 to consult with his Legal Aid lawyer and to request bail
