The bail application of a 52-year-old East London teacher accused of human trafficking and forcing young girls into prostitution has been adjourned to tomorrow for closing argument.
Vuyokazi Gana is accused of luring young girls from Mthatha, promising them a better future and job opportunities in East London.
In a written affidavit, Gana indicated that she intends to plead not guilty to the charges against her.
She also informed the court that her chronic medical conditions which include depression, diabetes and hypertension would worsen if she were to be kept behind bars.
The state is opposing bail due to the seriousness of the charges against her.
