Seventeen Nigerian nationals will on Tuesday, January 23, appear before a Rustenburg magistrate court in South Africa, after they were arrested for public violence and possession of dangerous weapons, African News Agency reports.

The Nigerians were arrested on Sunday night, January 21, for allegedly staging a ‘revenge attack’ against South Africans.

eagleee.com gathers that the revenge attack was reportedly staged following the death of a Nigerian man whose body was found in a stream on Friday, January 19, in Rustenberg.

The deceased, believed to be a drug lord, was bundled into a taxi with another individual, before his murder. The other person was not harmed.
The deputy chairman of the Tlhabane Community Policing Forum, Israel Maimane, and another man were subsequently accused of the murder.

However, both men were released at the Rustenburg Magistrate's Court on Monday, January 22.
