Ex-Arthur Kaplan director remanded in custody
The complicated bail hearing for the businessman and former director of Arthur Kaplan Jewellers, Hoosein Mohamed, will continue today, reports TimesLIVE.
Mohamed was arrested on 1 June and has been charged with common assault and pointing a firearm after an alleged attack on Laila Motala, who has been handling the liquidation of the jewellery chain.
Motala laid a charge against Mohamed, who has been in custody ever since.
He offered to pay R100 000 bail, surrender his passport and remain under house arrest until the case is finalised.
Magistrate Liezel Davis postponed the case again on Thursday as she wanted to hear from witness Thulane Ngubane from Arthur Kaplan holding company Luxe Holdings.
In addition, there was a technical glitch that delayed her receiving all the transcripts she needed.
Ngubane will be called to the witness box today.
