reports that after various applications - including to the Supreme Court of Appeal and to the Constitutional Court - to have the 97 charges against Omotoso, 60, Zukiswa Sitho, 28, and Lusanda Sulani, 36, quashed, the trial is set to start again before Judge Irma Schoeman. In March, Eastern Cape Judge President Selby Mbenenge ruled that the trial will run its entire course, starting July 30.
