Vusi 'Khekhe' Mathibela to challenge constitutionality of law on bail

PRETORIA - Notorious Mamelodi taxi boss Vusi "Khekhe" Mathibela is planning to bring an application to challenge the consitutionality of the section of the Criminal Procedure Act which allows courts to revoke the bail of defendants in their absence from court.

Mathibela, also known as Nyawane because he walks with a limp, briefly appeared at the Pretoria high court on Friday sporting a grey suit and white shirt. The State said that Mathibela was arrested while preparing to go on a holiday to Dubai despite his bail conditions preventing him from leaving the country.

His legal representative wants South African lawmakers to review the constitutionality of section 68 of the Criminal Procedure Act, No 51 of 1977 that was used to provisionally cancel his bail.
