Ex-teacher & journalist Willem Breytenbach’s s.e.x assault trial postponed for a month

The former teacher and journalist stands accused of raping or s.e.xually abusing men between 1983 and 2019.

Alleged child rapist and s.e.x assault accused Willem Breytenbach has appeared in court again for the first time in several months during the Covid-19 lockdown.

The former teacher and journalist stands accused of raping or s.e.xually abusing men between 1983 and 2019.

He formally faces six charges of indecent assault and one of s.e.xual assault.

Breytenbach is out on bail, and on Monday his case was postponed to 29 September.

This to allow for “further particulars and consultation”, which involves the exchange of legal correspondence between the prosecution and defence legal teams before the case will proceed.

Breytenbach arrived at the Cape Town Regional Court in the Cape Town central business district shortly before 9 am, wearing a black suit, and appeared within 30 minutes in Court I.

The proceedings only lasted several minutes, before he was dismissed and warned to appear punctually on the new court date.

Breytenbach declined an opportunity to comment on the case.
