Authorities Clarify Shebeshxt’s Bank Visit Amid Release Rumours
Limpopo musician Lehlogonolo “Shebeshxt” Chauke remains in custody despite social media claims that he has been released.
Authorities confirmed today, Tuesday that Chauke was escorted under supervision to a bank to withdraw money to pay his legal fees. The visit did not amount to a release.
Chauke has been in custody since his arrest at his Bendor home in Polokwane on 12 November 2025. He faces 21 charges, including attempted murder, robbery with aggravating circumstances, assault, firearm-related offences and culpable homicide linked to a 2024 road accident.
His latest bail application, brought on new facts, was postponed at the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court after the prosecutor fell ill. The matter is expected to resume on 11 November 2026.
Previous bail applications and a High Court appeal have been unsuccessful. Chauke remains behind bars as his case continues.
