(b) issue an order calling upon him and his sureties, if any, to appear on a day and at a place specified in the order to show cause why the recognizance should not be declared forfeited; and (c) if cause to the satisfaction of the judge or magistrate, as the case may be, is not shown against any such declaration, declare the recognizance to be forfeited, and such declaration of forfeiture shall have the effect of a judgment on the recognizance for the amounts therein named against such person and his sureties, respectively. 124 [Section repealed by s. 3 of Act No. 8 of 1997.] 125 Insufficiency of sureties If, through mistake, fraud or otherwise, insufficient sureties have been accepted or if they afterwards become insufficient, the judge or magistrate granting the bail may issue a warrant of arrest directing that the accused be brought before him, and may order him to find sufficient sureties, and on his failing so to do may commit him to prison. 126 Alteration of recognizances or committal of person on bail to prison (1) Any judge or magistrate who has granted bail to a person in terms of this Part may, if he is of the opinion that it is necessary or advisable in the interests of justice that the conditions of a recognizance entered into by that person should be altered or added to or that that person should be committed to prison, order that the said conditions be altered or added to or commit the person to prison, as the case may be: Provided that— (i) if the judge or magistrate who granted bail is not available, any other judge or magistrate, as the case may be, may act in terms of this subsection; (ii) a judge or magistrate shall not act in terms of this subsection unless facts which were not before the judge or magistrate who granted bail are brought to his attention. (2) In order to secure the presence before him of a person for the purpose of acting in terms of subsection (1), a judge or magistrate may issue a warrant for the arrest of the person and thereafter subsection (1) shall apply. (3) The provisions of section thirty-five shall apply, mutatis mutandis, in respect of a warrant issued in terms of subsection (2). 127 Person on bail may be arrested without warrant if about to abscond or interfere with witness (1) If a peace officer believes on reasonable grounds that a person to whom bail has been granted in terms of this Part is about to abscond for the purpose of evading justice or to interfere with the evidence against him, he may arrest the person without warrant and shall as soon as possible take him before a magistrate who may, upon being satisfied that the ends of justice would otherwise be defeated, commit the person to prison. (2) A person arrested in terms of subsection (1) shall be informed forthwith by the person arresting him of the cause of the arrest. 128 Release of sureties and death of surety (1) All or any sureties for the attendance and appearance of an accused person released on bail may at any time apply to the judge or magistrate before whom the recognizance was entered into to discharge the recognizance, either wholly or so far as relates to the applicants. (2) On an application in terms of subsection (1), the judge or magistrate shall issue a warrant of arrest directing that the accused be brought before him. (3) On the appearance of the accused pursuant to the warrant or on his voluntary surrender, the judge or magistrate shall direct the recognizances to be discharged, either wholly or so far as relates to the applicants, and shall call upon the accused to find other sufficient sureties, and if he fails to do so may commit him to prison.
