Fannie Nkosi appears in court, April 13, 2026.
Judgment in the bail application of suspended South African Police Service (SAPS) Organised Crime Unit member Sergeant Fannie Nkosi is expected to be delivered on Wednesday.
Nkosi was arrested following a raid at his Pretoria North home, where dockets, explosives, and ammunition were found earlier this month.
He faces charges including theft, defeating the ends of justice, and unlawful possession of ammunition and explosives.
Nkosi has told the court that he could afford R10 000 bail.
He has been in custody for more than two weeks.
It remains to be seen whether Magistrate Thandi Theledi will grant him bail.
The state is opposing his release, stating that the evidence suggests he was involved in protecting individuals linked to serious violent crimes and may evade trial.
While the defence previously argued there was no evidence that the dockets found during the raid at Nkosi’s home were stolen, and charges he’s facing don’t relate to his evidence at the Madlanga Commission.
