The Senzo Meyiwa murder trial has been postponed to Wednesday, pending written submissions by the state.
The witness has raised concerns around her safety if her testimony is broadcast, calling for an order to ban all audio and visuals when she takes the stand.
Mshololo says the same witness published her images on Instagram which compromised the advocate’s personal security. The media also made their own submissions, arguing that the matter is in the public’s interest considering that Meyiwa was a Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates football star.Media representative, Advocate Dan Rosengarten says, “My Lord my argument will proceed on the following basis. First, I will lay out certain principles and establish case law in relation to open justice as well as access via the electronic media to record the proceedings.
