JOHANNESBURG - The son of former Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe, Bellarmine, will be back in court next month.
The 28-year-old and his co-accused Tobias Matonhodze face charges of attempted murder after a man was shot and wounded at Mugabe's Hyde Park residence.
The pair made a brief appearance in the Alexandra Regional Court on Tuesday where their case was postponed to 17 April for further investigations.
Authorities have also added a charge of defeating the ends of justice.
The victim, believed to be a former employee, remains in critical condition.
Police have not yet recovered the firearm allegedly used in the shooting.
But investigators have tested both suspects for gunshot residue and have seized a vehicle fitted with illegal police sirens.
Their lawyers told the court the pair intends to seek a plea deal with the state.
