  "account": "Molemo \"Jub Jub\" Maarohanye, a prominent media personality, is set to face Germiston Magistrate's Court on Monday. He is charged with discharging a firearm in a public place, stemming from an incident in June involving an e-hailing driver in Edenvale, Johannesburg. Maarohanye accused the driver of being romantically involved with his girlfriend after she was dropped off at his residence. The case was postponed and a warrant of arrest issued due to his failure to appear in court citing ill health. The warrant remains in place until the next hearing. The state is prepared to proceed with the matter.",
