One of the two people accused of murdering AWB leader Eugene Terre'Blanche was led out of court amidst cheers and ululation on Tuesday shortly after lunchtime.
Police led one of the accused, with a jacket fixed firmly over his head blocking his face from view, out of the court and into a waiting Nyala.
The Nyala left the court in convoy with a number of police vehicles, sirens blaring.
The accused was wearing grey pants and a white belt.
Cheering crowd
As the vehicle drove off, the crowd cheered and ululated and shouted.
"Viva, Viva," they said, jumping and clenching their fists as the van drove off.
"They are our heroes — they did us proud," said Simon Molefe while jumping with joy.
Reporters wait to be briefed
Reporters were waiting to be briefed on the court proceedings, which were to take place in camera, due to the age of one of the accused.
Earlier, NPA head Menzi Simelane told the media the prosecuting authority had met representatives from the community, the AWB and the community policing forum to explain how court proceedings would unfold.
I wonder how far we have come with regards to race relations and reconcilliation when people cheer murder suspects for the very deeds any civilized nation would be totally shocked and outraged by?
