BackaBuddy shuts down or removes a legal-fees fundraising campaign for Peet Viljoen, according to reports from South African outlets. The campaign is described as having collected about R400,000, and it is removed shortly before Viljoen is expected to apply for bail. One report notes the shutdown happens the day before his anticipated bail appearance or application process. Another outlet frames the development as Viljoen preparing to apply for bail while BackaBuddy removes the fundraiser funds. The coverage focuses on the timing and the removal of the legal fundraising effort, without detailing the underlying reasons for the platform’s action in the provided excerpts. Both accounts tie the funding removal directly to the imminent bail process, suggesting the campaign’s status changes immediately ahead of the next legal step. No additional information is provided here on the legal basis for the fundraiser’s removal or the specific conditions of the bail application.
