Controversial Soweto principal Jackie Maarohanye is to testify in the Protea Magistrate’s Court when she returns to the dock on a kidnapping charge next month. Maarohanye (49), Ronnie Nyakale (34) and Mpho Makhate (21) are facing charges of assaulting and kidnapping a former Ithuteng Trust student, Siphiwe Ncugothu, on February 21 2006.
Within minutes of having her kidnapping case struck off the roll, Mama Jackie had swapped her black suit for camouflage military fatigues. Jackie Maarohanye, better known as the ”Angel of Soweto”, danced on the steps of the Protea Magistrate’s Court in Soweto on Monday while hundreds of her pupils cheered her on.
