    The case against a Grahamstown man facing charges of possession, manufacturing and distributing child pornography will be heard in the Eastern Cape High Court on Friday.

    The case against a Grahamstown man facing charges of possession, manufacturing and distributing child pornography will be heard in the Eastern Cape High Court on Friday.

    The 53-year-old suspect appeared briefly in the Magistrate's Court in Grahamstown today Tuesday 26 May.

    Magistrate Cyril Strauss transferred the case to the high court in Grahamstown for negotiations for a plea and sentencing agreement.

    In a telephone interview with Grocott's Mail, deputy director of Public Prosecutions Johan Bezuidenhout said the case was transferred to the high court for finalisation.

    The suspect appeared briefly in the Magistrate's Court in Grahamstown on Wednesday 29 April.

    He was not asked to plead.

    The man, the owner of a local guest house, was arrested in Grahamstown on Wednesday 11 March in a joint raid by local police and the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

    The man is alleged to be the kingpin of an international porn ring, wanted by the FBI for extradition to the United States.
