AYOB Mungalee, former Gauteng People Against Gangsterism and Drugs (Pagad) co-ordinator, could not appear in a Johannesburg court on charges of conspiracy to commit murder on Tuesday because he was too weak to be transported from Cape Town. Sixteen members and supporters of Pagad on Friday suspended their five-day hunger strike after the SA Prisoners Organisation for Human Rights intervened Mungalee is one of a number of Pagad members who embarked on a hunger-strike for two weeks. He was arrested on Christmas Day last year after being suspected of being hired to kill Rafiek Bhyait, a businessman who was shot dead in January 1999.
