North West Businessman Brown Mokgotsi's bail bid denied by court



North West businessman Brown Mogotsi has been denied bail in Johannesburg Magistrate's Court. Mogotsi, who was arrested few weeks ago, faces charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition, discharging a firearm in a built-up area, defeating the ends of justice and perjury.

Controversial political fixer and self-proclaimed undercover police agent, Brown Mogotsi has appeared before the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday after his arrest on Friday evening in connection with allegations that he faked a hit on himself in Vosloorus in November 2025.

The North West businessman was arrested shortly after testifying at the Madlanga Commission.

National police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said a SAPS multidisciplinary team had executed a J50 warrant of arrest on Friday evening.

“The case emanates from the alleged staging of an attempted assassination on the suspect’s life in Vosloorus,” Mathe said.
