The case of two black women who were allegedly shot and fed to pigs by a white farmer and two of his workers has caused outrage in South Africa.
The three men have not yet been asked to enter a plea in court, which will happen when the trial begins at a later date.

The family of Ms Makgato say they are devastated by her killing - especially her four sons, aged between 22 and five years old.
