Cellphone expert to resume testimony in Meyiwa murder trial
Five men are on trial for the murder of former Bafana Bafana Captain Senzo Meyiwa in October 2014.
The Senzo Meyiwa murder trial is set to resume at the High Court in Pretoria on Tuesday morning. The proceedings were halted last week when an interpreter fell ill and had to be hospitalized, resulting in a delay. Vodacom cellphone and data expert Tsholanang Golele is slated to return to the stand to provide testimony regarding the admissibility of cellphone records belonging to Mabhungu Ntuli, who was killed in the incident.
State Prosecutor Ronnie Sibanda stated that they had received notice of Golele's hospitalization. Judge Ratha Mokgoatlheng inquired about the court's next steps, to which Sibanda replied that they would need to postpone the hearing pending Golele's availability.
