Benoni - A white farmer being held for the murder of a six-month-old black baby was granted bail of 15,000 rand (£2,113) by a South African magistrate's court here yesterday.
Mr Nicholas Steyn is due to stand trial on charges of murder and attempted murder after firing on a group of black children walking through his fields last month. A bullet from his gun killed the baby, Angelina Zwane. She was being carried on the back of her cousin, Francina (11), who was hit in the chest by the same bullet.
