**Students in South Africa have thrown stones at police and a court where a musician accused of a hit-and-run killing was freed on bail.**Police fired water canon at some 2,000 protesters. Some threatened to burn the Soweto home of hip-hop performer Molemo Maarohanye, known as Jub Jub.
He was accused of killing four school pupils during a car race.
There were similar clashes at his initial court appearance on Wednesday, when police fired rubber bullets.
In granting bail of 10,000 rand ($1,360; £900), judge Andre Auret said he was aware that the safety of Jub Jub and fellow accused Themba Tshabalala was at risk.
“[But] I am convinced they have means to protect themselves in various ways - to name only one, they could resettle somewhere else until the case is finalised,” he said.
Some students have threatened to boycott school because of the court’s decision, saying he should not have been freed.
Some had been waiting outside the Protea Magistrate’s Court for more than five hours.
Jub Jub is one of South Africa’s best known hip-hop stars.
The trial has been set for 7 April.
