The case against three men arrested for robbing and assaulting businessman Glenn Agliotti was postponed at the Wynberg Magistrate's Court on Thursday.

Selby Khumalo (28), Vincent Ditlhase (30), and Mncedisi Makamo (25), appeared briefly in court and the case against them was postponed to 3 September. They face a charge of robbery with aggravating circumstances.

The three are alleged to be part of a group that broke into Agliotti's Bryanston residence and made off with goods worth R400 000. They allegedly broke into his home, assaulted him and his family and stole a television and jewellery before driving off with his car.

Agliotti himself is accused of the murder of mining magnate Brett Kebble.
