Magistrate Hleziphi Mkhasibe criticized certain aspects of Sibiya's defense and emphasized the strength of the state's case.
Meanwhile, a report from 2026 revealed that one in three young job applicants interviewed could not afford to attend due to transportation costs, while only one job offer was made for every 750 applications submitted.
