“On that strength, the accused managed to prove on a balance of probabilities that the candidates for bail and bail are granted,” the presiding officer ruled.Earlier, Kodwa’s legal representative, Advocate Zola Majavu told his client was aware of the nature and gravity of the charges against him. “The fact he is a minister does not denude him of his rights and does not entitle the NPA or anyone for that matter to violate his rights in a manner that has happened.”But Mogagabe, in his response to Majavu’s assertion, told the court that there was no need to deal with the case’s merits at this stage.Kodwa and Mackay were arrested as a result of the recommendations stemming from the Commission of Inquiry into the Allegations of State Capture report.
