- — Kickoff

According to the police report, the white male driving a Ford EcoSport assaulted Katsande on the corner of Hendrick Potgieter and Peter Road and broke the driver’s window and mirror causing damage estimated at R50 000.

WILLARD Katsande’s chase for justice is on with the man accused of assaulting him during a road rage incident having been brought to book.

According to the City Press, Jacobus Koekemoer briefly appeared at the Randburg Magistrate­s Court last week on charges of common assault and malicious damage to property.

He was then granted R1 000 bail with the case postponed to September 29 for further investigat­ion.

The veteran midfielder was involved in an ugly road rage incident two weeks ago, leaving his luxury motor vehicle damaged.

Katsande was travelling home after making his debut for new club Sekhukhune United against Chippa United at Makhulong Stadium when he found himself involved in the fracas in Roodepoort with Koekemoer allegedly damaging his German sedan.

The 35-year-old immediatel­y opened a case of common assault and malicious damage to property at the Honeydew Police Station. According to the police report, the white male driving a Ford EcoSport assaulted Katsande on the corner of Hendrick Potgieter and Peter Road and broke the driver’s window and mirror causing damage estimated at R50 000. Despite the incident, Katsande was still able to feature for Sekhukhune in their next game which was a 2-0 away win at Maritzburg coming on just after half-time.

Katsande recently joined Sekhukhune after spending a decade at Kaizer Chiefs where he earned legendary status.
