Bryanston High sports coach approaches DPP, wants prosecution decision reviewed
The case was postponed on Tuesday as the accused did not appear in court due to Covid-19.
The case first came to light after a pupil came forward accusing the former sports coach of sexually abusing her.
He was arrested in January after the 17-year-old pupil at the school and her mother opened a case against him.
This led to the accused’s dismissal from the school on 1 March after a disciplinary panel found him guilty of sexual harassment and financial mismanagement, News24 reported.
The accused remains out on bail. He is yet to plead and therefore cannot be named.
