Matlala case postponed amid ongoing legal delays

# The Pretoria Magistrate’s Court has ordered that controversial businessman Vusimusi ‘Cat’ Matlala remain at the Kgosi Mampuru correctional facility. He and his co-accused face 25 charges, including money laundering and attempted murder. Proceedings were delayed to allow the state to respond to defence submissions. Prosecutors are reviewing fresh representations, while defence teams argue key documents remain undisclosed, delaying progress toward a pre-trial hearing. The case resumes on 13 May.
