An Ethiopian man accused of kidnapping 12 boys in Joburg made a brief appearance in the Booysens magistrates court yesterday where his case was postponed to Friday to allow for an interpreter to be made available.
The 47-year-old, who said he has been in SA for 21 years, told the court he is not fluent in English and speaks Amharic - the official language of Ethiopia.
He cannot be named at this stage in case an identity parade becomes necessary.
