Village magistrate Ike Raphael has given the prosecution in the murder of former chief executive officer of Fairground Holdings, Michael Montshiwa more time.

Raphael decided yesterday to grant - in their absence - both the substantive prosecutor and the suspect’s attorney more time to decide if they are going ahead with the case against accused, Modise David.

Raphael said that he was forced to schedule a return date for the matter in two months so as to give the state more time to finalise the outstanding issues they presented to court in their previous appearance. Attorney Kgosietsile Ngakaagae represents the accused while Mathogonolo Shatie represents the State in the matter.  Raphael said that the State should be in a position to tell the court of their decision relating to this case when the matter returns to court in two months’ time.
