BREAKING NEWS: Shebeshxt Faces Bail Hearing in Polokwane Magistrate’s Court Amid Attempted Murder Charges

Limpopo musician Lehlohonolo Chauke, better known as Shebeshxt, is set to apply for bail on Tuesday at the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court. The 30-year-old lekompo artist has been in custody since his arrest on November 12, 2025, facing charges of attempted murder, malicious damage to property, and unlawful possession of a firearm. The allegations stem from an incident on October 19, 2025, where he allegedly fired shots at a vehicle, injuring a 34-year-old man.

Shebeshxt’s case has drawn significant public attention, with supporters packing the courtroom during his previous appearance, causing delays. His lawyer plans to consolidate this case with other pending charges, which could complicate his bail prospects. The prosecution is pushing for a lengthy prison sentence if convicted.

The court hearing is expected to be a pivotal moment in determining whether Shebeshxt will be released or remain in custody. His music career has been put on hold, disappointing fans and impacting scheduled performances.
