An alleged serial rapist abandoned his bid for bail at the Durban magistrate’s court on Friday.
The 50-year old man, who cannot be named pending his plea to the charges, was expected to make a formal bail application.
Mkhwanazi said he could not comment on the reasons for the withdrawal of the bail application, but questioned why the state had not added the four additional charges on Friday. State prosecutor Treasure Ntimane told the court there are outstanding investigations, including DNA results and the interviews with the six alleged victims.
