# The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions says it will not withdraw charges against Bafana Mahungela, accused of the murder of Delta Park teacher Kirsten Kluyts. The 22-year-old is also charged with kidnapping, robbery, and the attempted rape of Kluyts. The defence argued insufficient evidence, but the State says it is ready for trial. The High Court in Johannesburg has postponed the matter to 13 October. Mahungela remains in custody.
