Murder accused Tiffany Nicole Meek back in court

A mother accused of her son's murder is back in the Roodepoort Magistrates Court on Wednesday.

Tiffany Nicole Meek allegedly killed her 11-year-old son, Jayden-Lee, then reported him missing to authorities in May.

She's been in custody since July after a failed bail bid.

Meek faces multiple charges, including murder and defeating the ends of justice.

Her child's body was found a few metres from their family unit in the Fleurhof complex, in the west of Johannesburg, days after he was reported missing.

The court has previously heard investigators found evidence in Meek's home that indicates her son had returned home from school on the day he was attacked.

This evidence disputed Meek's claims that her son never came home after leaving for school one morning.

The court listed over 20 points that would lead to a bail denial, emphasising that she was blatantly dishonest.

The matter resumes for the finalisation of the indictment.
