Background
The applicant is charged with two counts of rape under section 65 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act. A previous bail application was dismissed on 13 July 2010 by HLATSHWAYO J on grounds that investigations were complete, the offences are serious and increasing, and the applicant was a flight risk. The current application alleges changed circumstances but fails to demonstrate any material changes.
