National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane said the matter was postponed to February 28.Zamaswazi Majozi, 36, made a brief appearance at the Germiston magistrate’s court.

Majozi, of Leondale, Germiston, is charged with incitement to commit public violence related to the July riots in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng. During her first court appearance in August, Hawks spokesperson Lt-Col Katlego Mogale said Majozi was accused of using her Twitter account to instigate the violent looting in Gauteng and KZN.Speaking to Sowetan during her previous appearance last month, Majozi said she had used her social media account to call on the government to intervene during looting and not to incite violence.
