# The 58-year-old pastor and former investment banker accused of raping a 12-year-old girl has abandoned his bail application at the Roodepoort Magistrate’s Court in Gauteng. Tshepo Ntsimane appeared in court this morning but did not proceed with his bid for release. The matter has been postponed to 20 May for further investigation. The case stems from allegations linked to the Easter Weekend, with authorities continuing their investigation into the matter. Ntsimane remains in custody as proceedings continue.
