custody, following the discovery of illicit items during a search by correctional officers.<\/p>\n<p>Reports indicate that the musician, whose real name is Lehlogonolo \u201cShebeshxt\u201d Chauke, was charged on Tuesday after officials at the Polokwane Holding Cells reportedly found a cell phone, used sachets with traces of an unknown substance, and a pipe typically used for drug consumption in his cell.<\/p>\n<p>This finding occurred while he was awaiting his upcoming court session.<\/p>\n<p>The recent developments come as Shebeshxt remains incarcerated, following the Polokwane High Court&#8217;s decision to refuse him bail.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2025, Judge Natalie Burnet reaffirmed a prior ruling by Senior Magistrate Godfrey Netshiozwi, which kept the artist detained as legal proceedings continue.<\/p>\n<p>He is scheduled to appear again at the Polokwane Magistrate\u2019s Court on 17 February 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The news regarding the discovered contraband spread rapidly on social media, eliciting intense reactions from users.<\/p>\n<p>Many voiced worries that this additional charge could further jeopardize his chances for release, while others believed it negatively impacted his legal situation.<\/p>\n<p>The incident was initially reported on Tuesday, 10 February 2026, by entertainment and news blogger Limpopo Chronicle, informing the public that Shebeshxt had been charged while still in custody.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities have not yet provided an official statement regarding the new charge, which adds more controversy to the rapper\u2019s ongoing legal challenges.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"wedod-1049663901\" class=\"wedod-after-content wedod-entity-placement\"><script async
