On Wednesday, Khoanyana told the Vanderbijlpark Magistrates Court that he wished to abandon bail.
He was arrested in May and pointed police to the site where two-year-old Kutlwano Shalaba’s body was buried.
Mpumelelo Zikalala has outlined steps to be taken in order for a confession to be admissible: “Firstly, it must be done in front of a magistrate. A legal practitioner has to be there. If there’s a language barrier, an interpreter is needed so that a person is fully cognisant of what they are saying yes to and what they are pleading guilty to.”
