The State is still trying to get a mental assessment for Parliament arson-accused Zandile Mafe, after the first one was cancelled due to procedural issues.

Mafe who was arrested on 2 January while the National Assembly building was on fire, finally made it into the dock of the Western Cape High Court on Friday, after refusing to attend the last two dates.

Judge Mokgoatji Josiah Dolamo postponed the pre-trial to 27 January so that Mafe's legal team could give this some consideration and get back to the court.

They also needed a postponement to get a room to take a laptop into for consultation with Mafe on the contents of a memory stick.

His lawyer Luvuyo Godla said on the sidelines of the matter that his client received a kettle and a TV, as requested when he refused to go to court for his last appearance.
