A 20-year-old Malawian, Eric Nyirenda, made a second brief appearance in court yesterday in connection with the daring break- in at the Pelindaba nuclear facility west of Pretoria two weeks ago.

Nyirenda, who lives on a plot in Broederstroom less than 15km from the facility, is suspected of being part of the gang that breached security at the complex.

A security chief, Anton Gerber, was shot in the chest during the incursion. He is recovering at home.

Nyirenda’s case was postponed to November 28 in the Brits Magistrate’s Court yesterday.
