Msomi, charged with 83 charges of fraud involving R20 million and six charges under the Electronic and Telecommunications Act, escaped when he was escorted from the same court on December 9.<\/p>\n
He was recaptured while trying to board a bus to Gauteng.<\/p>\n
With his ankles shackled, Msomi appeared on Monday with the two suspects who allegedly let him escape — Inspector Makosonkhe Derrick Ndlela, 41, and Constable Sihle Njila, 32.<\/p>\n
Ndlela and Njila face charges of aiding Msomi to escape and defeating the ends of justice.<\/p>\n
These charges were also added to the list of charges Msomi faces.<\/p>\n
Ndlela and Njila are out on bail of R3000 each.<\/p>\n
Msomi allegedly imported spy software in the form of computer systems which monitors and records all computer records.<\/p>\n
He allegedly captured passwords and diverted payment intended for others into accounts which he created.<\/p>\n
Msomi said he wished to apply for bail but prosecutor Pranisha Kassool said he was previously refused bail when he applied for it in the in the same court.<\/p>\n
Magistrate Divesh Mootheram said it was unlikely that he would be granted bail in view of the previous refusal and the new escaping charge.<\/p>\n
Msomi said he did not need legal representation to be appointed for him but would instruct his own attorney.<\/p>\n
The case was postponed to October 30.<\/p>\n
