Neurosurgeon defends his position on Angelo Agrizzi's fitness to stand trial: A neurosurgeon who examined Angelo Agrizzi told the Pretoria high court it was the first time he had been asked to testify on a person's fitness to stand trial.

He had testified in cases regarding contested wills, where a deceased's mental capability in drawing up such a document was questioned, he added.

“I apply my mind and give opinions. This is the first time I have been asked whether a person can stand trial,” Edeling said. The first criticism was that Edeling did not perform a physical examination when he met Agrizzi in March last year. Steyn also said Edeling came to his conclusion based on medical notes after Agrizzi was admitted to Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in October 2020. He was hospitalised there after being denied bail in one of the cases he faces.Agrizzi's advocate, Mannie Witz, asked Edeling to make medical observations on Agrizzi, who attended the inquiry virtually from home.
