Pretoria - Six white South African policemen accused of setting dogs on black job-hunters in a videotaped attack appeared in court yesterday to appeal for bail.
The State Prosecutor, Mr Christo Roberts, opposed bail, citing the safety of the six amid outrage against them among many black and white South Africans. He said there was also a danger that the accused could intimidate Mr Andries Jacobs, identified during the hearing as the source of the video-tape.
