The Lekompo musician, whose real name is Katlego Lehlogonolo Chauke, is still behind bars despite a video of him at Mall of the North in Polokwane circulated on social media.

The video, which went viral on Tuesday, 10 November, showed the controversial musician accompanied by the investigating officer in his case, Captain Phaladi Makola and his legal representative.
Shebeshxt was seen making his way towards a police vehicle as excited supporters cheered him on.
The footage left many people confused, with some speculating that the musician had finally been granted bail.
But Shebeshxt has not been released on bail.
His appearance at the mall follows a request made by his legal team during his previous court appearance at the Polokwane Magistrates Court on Monday, 9 November.
His lawyer, Advocate Mutheiwana Sikhwari SC asked the court to allow his client to visit a bank branch under police escort to resolve banking issues.

The lawyer explained that the visit was necessary to ensure Shebeshxt’s partner, Kholo, could access the money in his account.
“Your worship, my client is requesting to be escorted to a banking branch to sort out some banking issues so that his wife, Kholo can be able to access the funds,” Sikhwari told the court.
Presiding magistrate, Godfrey Netshiozwi granted the request and ordered that police officers escort the musician to the bank.
The outing was therefore not a sign that Shebeshxt had been granted his freedom.
The musician remains in custody as he fights for bail under new facts.
He faces 21 charges, including four counts of attempted murder and culpable homicide.
This is his fifth overall bail attempt since his arrest on 12 November 2025 after previous attempts failed.
Shebeshxt returns to Polokwane Magistrates court on Wednesday, 11 November.
