State Advocate George Baloyi kicked off proceedings by giving the court an update on the cross-examination of Lieutenant Colonel Chris Mangena.

JOHANNESBURG - The presiding judge in the Senzo Meyiwa trial wants the head of the Legal Aid board to testify on the funding of a ballistic expert for the defence.

But three weeks since the adjournment and eight months since Mangena’s testimony, the defence told the court on Monday morning that they were not ready. The defence confirmed this development, but Judge Ratha Mokgoatlheng was unimpressed with this update.
