| dc.concourt.casehistory | Application for leave to appeal against a judgment and order of the North West High Court Mafikeng: Matjeke and Others v S (08/2012) [2013] ZANWHC 95 (18 April 2013). In the Trial Court, the accused were Mr Thabo Elekia Matjeke (accused 1); Mr Boswell Mhlongo (accused 2); Mr George Sipho Makhubela (accused 3); Mr Alfred Disco Nkosi (accused 4); Mr Thembekile Molaudzi (accused 5); Mr Samuel Sampie Khanye (accused 6); and Mr Victor Zandile Moyo (accused 7). Three of their co-accused successfully appealed to this Court against their sentences and convictions in: Molaudzi v S [2015] ZACC 20; 2015 (8) BCLR 904 (CC); 2015 (2) SACR 341 (CC) and Mhlongo v S; Nkosi v S [2015] ZACC 19; 2015 (2) SACR 323 (CC); 2015 (8) BCLR 887 (CC). The other two, Mr George Sipho Makhubela and Mr Thabo Elekia Matjeke have now applied to this Court seeking the same order that was granted in Molaudzi. This judgment contains reasons for the Constitutional Court order given on 22 March 2017. |
