Cape Town - A man who told security at the Cape Town Fan Fest he had a bomb in his bag appeared in the city's Magistrate's Court on Monday, police said.

"While entering the main entrance at the Fan Fest, he refused to be searched and told security personnel that he had a bomb in his bag. It is alleged that he repeated the verbal treat three times," said Colonel Billy Jones.

Simphiwe Mshweshwe, 32, from Parklands, Table View was arrested at about 15:00 after the police dog unit found he was not carrying a bomb.

"No explosive devices were found in his possession."

He was charged with contravening the Explosives Act when he briefly appeared in the court on Monday night.

Mshweshwe was released on R1 000 bail and would appear again on Thursday.
