DJ Warras Murder Case Delayed as Accused’s Bail Bid Pushed to 13 January

Prosecutors plan to oppose his release, citing the seriousness of the offence.

Overview

  • Tuesday’s planned hearing was reset to 13 January to allow Victor Majola to lodge a formal bail application.
  • The 44-year-old remains in custody over the 16 December 2025 shooting outside a Johannesburg city-centre building.
  • A woman arrested with him at a Soweto hostel had her charges withdrawn for lack of evidence.
  • The case continues to draw close public attention because of DJ Warras’s media profile.
  • Majola has alleged police assaulted him during his arrest, a claim reported in court without independent corroboration.
