Hundreds of people protested outside a South African court, demanding death sentences for six men charged with raping a nine-month old baby, police said.
In a case that has shocked the nation, the six men made a brief court appearance in the north-western town of Upington, but their case was postponed to December for further investigation, the domestic SAPA news agency reported.
Rape support groups have demanded the death penalty for the men, who did not apply for bail as expected.
