Scores of people wearing African National Congress (ANC) regalia are gathered outside the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court in Mpumalanga, where former MEC Mandla Msibi is expected to continue his bail application.

Msibi and four others are facing two charges of murder and one of attempted murder.

Two accused were released on R20 000 bail last week.

Msibi and the other two accused will continue their bail application on Wednesday.
