His legal representative Thabo Dipudi declined to comment on the matter.

CONTROVERSIAL social media personality Musa Khawula has once again abandoned his bail application.

Musa appeared briefly in the Fochville Magistrates Court on Wednesday, 5 February, for a formal bail hearing.

He faces multiple charges, including attempted murder, reckless driving, and failure to report an accident or render assistance.

The 33-year-old appeared different from his previous court appearance in the Randburg Magistrates Court on Wednesday, 29 January.

Dressed in a white formal shirt and grey trousers, Musa seemed unbothered, flashing smiles and appeared unfazed by the serious charges levelled against him.

As he was escorted to the holding cells, he even requested the media to roll their cameras and blew kisses at them.

Speaking to Daily Sun, Musa said he would provide his statement during his next court appearance in the Fochville Regional Court on Thursday, 13 February.

His legal representative Thabo Dipudi declined to comment on the matter.

Magistrate Poppy Mogagabe confirmed the postponement.

"The matter has been postponed to 13 February for formal bail application. Musa Khawula appeared briefly in the Fochville Magistrates Court, where the matter was initially set down for a formal bail application. However, he opted to abandon his bail request, and the case has been postponed to 13 February in the regional court," said National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson Lumka Mahanjana.

This marks the second time Musa has abandoned his bail application in two weeks.

Previously, he did the same after appearing in the Randburg Magistrates Court on 29 January, where he faced crimen injuria and contempt of court charges.

Additionally, a charge involving a politician has recently been added to his legal troubles.
