Bafana Sindane approaches the court to block WhatsApp messages, saying evidence retrieved from his devices should not be used in the Madlanga matter. The application is presented as urgent, requesting that the messages be excluded from the proceedings.
The dispute centers on whether the WhatsApp communications obtained from Sindane’s phone(s) can be admitted. Coverage provided focuses on his effort to prevent the messages from being used, but it does not detail the prosecution’s response, the specific content of the messages, or the legal grounds cited by either side beyond the attempt to bar the evidence.
