“At this stage we cannot say what charges we are going to add. At this stage the profiling of the accused has not been done, the confirmation of addresses has not been done, so pending all this ... then we will know what other charges to add,” she said.

The number of accused was reduced from 56 to 53 after three were found to be hotel staff and released. The accused ranged in age from the mid-40s to 63.“The state doesn’t know what it wants to charge the people with or whether to charge them at all.
Says the wannebee that are losing all his law cases
So were they hostages or not..? If yes, that is illegal. If not, why was it necessary to call in the police to rescue the minister? Something does not add up. Smells like a Zuma trick.
The Minister did say they were even singing, there was no animosity, no weapons. This is making a mountain out of an anthill. Just like President saying there was an insurrection,next thing we will be told of an attempted coup.
The mood was that of a conference and engagements get heated, I don't think they meant any harm to the aforementioned
dali mpofu will say anything and fight for a baseless cause just to let the fees roll in
