# Ponzi scheme accused Louis Liebenberg appeared in the Bronkhorstspruit Magistrate’s Court today, where a psychiatric report found he has no mental illness and is fit to stand trial. He was referred for psychiatric observation after questions about his mental state. The report clears the way for his criminal case to proceed. He faces about 125 charges, including racketeering and money laundering, but denies wrongdoing. He and his eight co-accused, including his wife, Dezi, allegedly convinced thousands of people to hand over more than 4-billion-rand for investments in the diamond industry.
