The case was scheduled for bail ruling this morning, but no reason for adjournment has been said.
But the presence of the FOMO branded minibus at the court raised speculations that the charity organisation is supporting alleged criminals.
Police prosecutor Dalileni Kalanguluka said the senior resident magistrate Asunta Maxwell has set Monday 28th of August for bail ruling.
The estate, which has been destroyed, is owned by the business Magnet Leston Mulli and over K5 billion worth trees have been stolen.
