#FeesMustFall activist still waiting for his trial to start
The long-awaited trial of University of Cape Town student activist Masixole Mlandu, for alleged incidents related to the fight for free education, was postponed in the Wynberg Regional Court on Thursday.
"The case was postponed to May 3," said his lawyer, Lufuno Musetsho.
His trial on four charges related to the Fees Must Fall protests that swept the country in 2015 and 2016, was supposed to have started on Thursday, but didn't go ahead because there was outstanding paperwork.
Mlandu faces four charges: public violence, the violation of a court order (which restricted entrance to the campus), intimidation and malicious damage to property.
"He has pleaded not guilty," said Musetsho.
