Advocate Michelle Ives who is representing the first of four persons accused of attacking Uber clients, Elias Mankgane, on Thursday told the Johannesburg High Court – sitting at Palmridge Magistrate’s court – that her client’s rights were abused.
Ives told the court that police Lieutenant-Colonel Bayat denied her client his right to have legal representation during the identity parade that was done in September 2016. During cross-examination on Thursday Bayat denied that Mankgane requested to have his representative present. “I did not get such a request,” he said. He said if such a request had been made he would have postponed the ID parade to another day.The accused quartet made up of Mankgane, Daniel Maswikaneng, Treasure Bonga and Themba Mkuwanazi allegedly went on a violent crime orgy in the north of Johannesburg, where they targeted Uber clients in July 2016.
