Wares’ Sentencing Delayed Again | Johannesburg News
Description
Another delay in the sentencing of convicted child abuser Iain Wares, who’s now sidelined by shingles and severe pain — his court appearance pushed to August 24th after being off sick since July 28th. Critics suspect this is yet another tactic to stall justice, especially as the case has dragged on for over three years. Wares, convicted in 2026 for assaulting a boy in the 80s, also faces extradition to the UK for 90 charges involving 65 boys — all while remaining free on bail. Advocacy groups warn the survivor is being re-victimized by endless legal delays, urging the system to prioritize child protection and hold him accountable.
