Professor Cyril Karabus’s bail money has been returned to him, but he is still waiting for his passport.
|||Cape Town - Paediatric oncologist Cyril Karabus’s bail money has been returned to him, but he is still waiting for his passport to be given back to him so he can leave the United Arab Emirates.
On Monday Karabus’s local lawyer, Michael Bagraim, said Karabus had waited at the Abu Dhabi prison where he had been held, hoping his passport would be returned, which did not happen.
Bagraim said Karabus’s R250 000 bail money had been returned, which “show’s there’s movement”.
Karabus, 78, was held in Abu Dhabi on August 18 on manslaughter charges imposed in absentia after a three-year-old Yemeni girl died in 2002.
