The Malawian businessman, born Chipiliro Gama, appeared in Lilongwe High Court on Tuesday, where he and his wife challenged the constitutionality of their arrest.
The matter was postponed until December 14 after the judge requested more information from the state and the couple’s lawyers.
Bushiri, also known as “Major 1”, mysteriously fled South Africa last month.
The 37-year-old, who founded and leads the Enlightened Christian Gathering (ECG) Church, was tried in a case of alleged fraud and money laundering of more than 100 million rand.
Their luxury mansion in Centurion was seized and the couple forfeited a combined R400,000 bail money for violating bail conditions set by the Pretoria Central Magistrates Court.
A case involving Bushiri’s co-defendant, businessman Willah Mudolo, his wife Zethu and Landiwe Ntlokwana, was postponed until Dec. 8 in Pretoria magistrates court on Thursday.
