The alleged crime took place in Fleurhof, Johannesburg, in May of the previous year. The prosecution plans to introduce a new key witness, potentially Jayden-Lee's school transport driver or his teacher, whose testimony could provide additional details about the timeline of the boy's disappearance. The case has garnered significant media attention following Jayden-Lee's disappearance and subsequent death. Prosecutors are constructing their argument around the events leading up to the boy's disappearance, with the upcoming witness expected to shed light on his whereabouts and movements at the time. The trial is anticipated to conclude by Thursday, with the state scheduled to present evidence from the new witness.",
