Former FeesMustFall activist Bonginkosi Khanyile unrest case postponed until December
Durban - The case against Bonginkosi Khanyile, which was brought up after Khanyile was identified as one of the main instigators behind the July unrest, that resulted in billions of rand in damages and the deaths of more than 200 people, has been postponed until December 13, 2021.
Khanyile appeared before the Durban Magistrate’s Court on Friday, after he was charged for inciting violence during the unrest, in protest against the imprisonment of former president Jacob Zuma. Khanyile also appeared before the court for a bail hearing early last month and maintained his position on the jailing of Zuma, crying out for his release. Khanyile was granted bail of R5 000 in September, for his actions relating to the alleged insurrection.
He was seen in a video, on social media, speaking to a crowd of people in the eThekwini region, shortly before riots broke out. KwaZulu-Natal-based leader of the African Democratic Change Visvin Reddy said he wanted Khanyile, as well as other instigators behind the unrest, to be charged with treason.
