JUST IN | Senzo Meyiwa trial: Malesela Teffo withdraws as defence team advocate, claims harassment

Advocate Malesela Teffo, who represents four of the accused in the Senzo Meyiwa trial, has withdrawn as legal counsel.

Advocate Malesela Teffo, who represents four of the men accused of murdering former Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, Senzo Meyiwa, has abandoned his jurisdiction challenge. Teffo believes the prosecution should be stopped because the accused were arrested based on allegations forced and unlawful confessions.Four people were arrested on Tuesday morning - two of which were former employees of Swiss engineering firm ABB - in connection with an alleged inflated multimillion contract between the company and Eskom's Kusile power station.

Hawks spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Philani Nkwalase said the recovered copper is believed to have been taken from a truck hijacking incident earlier this month at the Monster truck stop in Kempton Park.11 July 14:27Two people have been arrested in connection to the killing of four people and wounding of eight others at a tavern in Pietermaritzburg.

A 51-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly strangling his fiancé in KwaNobuhle, outside Gqeberha, on Sunday. "The investigation has found that racism at Grosvenor Girls High School is systematic, structural and that white authority dominates all facets at the school," said Mshengu in a statement."

"It is reported that four men, of which one of them was armed with 9mm pistols entered the tavern and started shooting randomly at patrons," Gauteng police spokesperson Colonel Dimakatso Sello said.10 July 09:09Four people have been killed and another eight are in critical condition after yet another tavern shooting, this time in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal.

The body, which was found last week by people collecting wood, was in a state of decomposition, said police spokesperson Warrant Officer Mmako Mophiring. A bullet hit the officer's hand. A bystander was also shot and wounded. The gang fled in a white Chevrolet bakkie and have yet to be apprehended. A man was arrested after police stopped his car this week and found a R13 million drug stash, the National Prosecuting Authority said on Thursday.

Maybe televising such case was not a good idea.

Sore loser

I mean we live in a country Run by the 'Struggle' Mafias who pretend to be freedom and Democracy fighters. He probably was threatened to death if he didn't withdraw himself from the Trial,since high ranking officials from the upper structures of the Government are involved.

Finally this case will have progress 🤔

Somethin tells me you dont like what happened today, I mean that's all you wrote?

Tribal courts operate far much better than South African courts.The Chiefs must take over.

Now let us forget about senzo’s case and let the case stuck off roll , I can see justice impossible

What does a man have to do to be taken seriously by you guys. Even the fact that a whole President has a number on the advocate won't change your low opinion of him

True

What a disgrace to the profession....

Only in south africa... Can u on one day defend alleged murderers and the next day work for the family of the person who was murdered....

Withdrawal of Adv Teffo is great news for Kelly Khumalo. SenzoMeyiwatrial

🤭🤭🤭🤭

there goes the show

Rest Ndzori truth will come one day

So he withdraws with the allegations he made, without having them tested or proven? Leads one to question if he was serious about the allegations he made.

What a circus... Expected this in parliament not in the courts

In football we can say; Teffo played the game under protests but because of consistently biased officiating from the referee and assistant referees, he(Teffo) felt harassed and decided to walk out of the pitch before full time whistle.

He was struggling hahaha

Very bad

This was expected. The case seems to involve high profile criminals who will do anything to protect their criminal interests, and he was on his way to exposing those. Safety first Advocate.

Adv Teffo once said he's not afraid of anything and some people believe him. But now k'shubile and he's running away😥🤔.

What we call a sore loser sellout,learn from Malema and hire white advocates.

Smh

Now that he got that ATM job it makes sense

Adv Teffo made some serious allegations in court. Poor litigation. Drama drama … his clients deserve better legal representation SenzoMeyiwatrial

Clown

Result of witchcraf

kabelodick what a clown lol. now the trial is going to get postponed for months
