Johannesburg - The 57-year-old scholar patroller, accused of sexually assaulting dozens of children at the AB Xuma Primary school, appeared in the Protea Magistrate's Court on Wednesday where the case was postponed for further investigation.
State prosecutor Cheryl Slack told the court that the matter would be referred to the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for a decision on where the case will be heard. She also said 25 children still needed to be seen by social workers.
