The state wants to approach the Supreme Court to challenge Stander’s R350,000 bail and the handing over of his passport which allows him to travel.
JOHANNESBURG - Prosecutors in the murder case against four former apartheid police officers have accused the presiding judge of having an interest in favour of one of the accused.
Stander and three others are accused of murdering anti-apartheid activist, Caiphus Nyoka, in 1987, at his home in Daveyton. In the State's papers, while filing for leave to appeal, it pointed out how the lawyers for Stander expressed their desire to abandon their application but acting judge Gerhardus Botha ordered them not to.
