A SMALL group of demonstrators gathered outside the Belfast Magistrate’s Court in Mpumalanga when a local businessman, his friend and a widow appeared on various charges of child sex abuse. The demonstrators placed placards against the court’s fence, some of which read: “No bail for child abusers”. The widow is accused of forcing her son, aged 13, and daughter, aged 10, to perform sexual acts with the two men in return for payment. The siblings were also apparently forced to watch their mother having sex with the men. The widow is out on R1 000 bail and her children are in a place of safety. – African Eye News Service
