Dominque CJay Van Wyk, accused of stabbing to death John Matokolo Angolo, has been denied bail in the Swakopmund Magistrate's Court.

The bail hearing was postponed to November 21.

This comes after the family of Angolo protested to oppose the bail application of the alleged killer.

Angolo was stabbed this year on 30 June while trying to stop a group of men from damaging a taxi in which he was a passenger.

The family handed over the petition to the Swakopmund court prosecutor, Tresia Hafeni.
