Mudau postponed the attempted murder case to February 27, saying with the new developments, the prosecutor would send the attempted murder and murder dockets to the Director of Public Prosecutions for a decision.

He was charged after he allegedly chopped off Ripambeta High School teacher Hasani Chauke's hand with a sharp object, after accusing him of having an affair with his wife.

But before the trial could go on, the prosecution and his lawyer Freddy Makamu told Mudau that there were new developments in the case that would make it impossible for the attempted murder trial to go on. It emerged that Chauke had died after Makhuva, who had been hounding him for a long time, had allegedly chopped him to death.
