MODIMOLLE - The National Prosecuting Authority believes it has a strong case against the Phala Phala farm burglars.
Siblings David and Froliana Joseph, alongside their accomplice, Imanuwela David, appeared at the Modimolle Regional Court in Limpopo on Monday.
They are charged with breaking into President Cyril Ramaphosa’s farm and making off with 580 thousand us dollars in cash.
In what was supposed to be the first day of a four-week trial, it was postponed due to Froliana being heavily pregnant.
Her lawyers requested and were granted a three-month postponement, while the State did not object.
The NPA’s Limpopo spokesperson, Mashudu Malabi-Ndhzangi, said: “The state has got a very strong case against, there is nothing that is going to happen except that we have got this case and we will proceed with it.”
The case has been postponed to 15 September 2025, with the trial expected to run until 8 October 2025.
