In our top story in this midweek edition of News24’s Unread, self-proclaimed Crime Intelligence agent Brown Mogotsi, facing charges relating to an apparent staged attempt on his own life, now wants bail again, but the police officer investigating Mogotsi accuses him of plotting a brazen break from court custody. In other stories, a 10111 call to the police in Cape Town goes unheeded, and four people die in a mob justice attack on the outskirts of Dunoon. Later in the show, we herald the epic return of Captain Siya Kolisi to lead the Springbok charge against the All Blacks in the Mother City this Saturday.
