The immediate freedom of popular Lekompo musician, Lehlogonolo Katlego Chauke, professionally known as Shebeshxt or Shebe Maburna hangs in the balance following an explosive day in court.

 

The 31-year-old star appeared before the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court on Thursday as he continues to be released on bail.

 

However his chances of getting bail were thrown a curve after the State Prosecutor Kgaogelo Lekoloane called on a new witness in the form of Fikile Nkosi, who is the operational nurse manager at the Polokwane Correctional facility.

 

Nkosi told the court that the musician never requested medical attention while in custody and was not denied any treatment.

 

“All complaints and requests are recorded in a register… The accused never registered to get medical assistance, she said

 

Nkosi’s testimony directly interdicts Shebeshxt’s claims that his condition worsened in custody and is now in need of a Open Reduction Internal Fixation ( ORIF) as soon as possible.

 

Shebe’s lawyer, Michael Khumalo poked holes in Nkosi’s testimony, disputing the existence of the register.

 

“The accused informed me that he is not aware of such a register and the register doesn’t exist, said Khumalo during the cross – examination

 

With the defence having wrapped up their arguments, the state will an opportunity to present their arguments before the court next week.

 

Magistrate Godfrey Netshiozwi postponed the case to the 28th of April with the accused spending the long weekend behind bars.
