Fadiel Adams was released on R10,000 bail by the Pinetown Magistrate's Court on Friday.
Jubilation erupted at the Pinetown Magistrate's Court when Fadiel Adams was released from detention after the court ruled on his Schedule 1 bail application on Friday.
Magistrate Wendalyn Robinson said she was satisfied that he is a candidate to be released, and he was granted R10,000 bail. Adams will return to court on August 14.
On Friday, the court heard closing arguments in mitigation and aggravation of his bail application in which Adams’s legal counsel, advocate Yuri Gangai, addressed the court regarding the State’s arguments that their client is a flight risk in that he attempted to evade trial.
During court proceedings, Adams’s “catch me if you can” conduct was placed under the spotlight.
