Community members from the Amaoti area, north of Durban, gathered outside the Verulam Magistrate's court on Monday where a man, arrested in connection with the death of a 1-year-old boy, was expected to appear.
The 31-year-old man was arrested in the Eastern Cape on Friday after the boy’s body was found in an open grassy area at the end of a cul de sac in Phoenix last week Tuesday.
The boy had been reported missing from the Amaoti area near Phoenix a few days before his body was found. A missing person's report was opened at Inanda police station.
