Magaqa Murder Trial Postponed to June

The Pietermaritzburg High Court has warned a former Umzimkhulu municipal manager that no further delays will be tolerated in the Sindiso Magaqa murder trial. This after the court heard that Zweliphansi Skhosana had already changed attorneys twice. His current attorney - Sibusiso Dlamini - applied for a postponement and told the court that he needed to rearrange cases, get the docket and appoint an advocate. The trial was set down to start today. Skhosana is being charged with the 2017 murder of former ANC Youth League secretary - Sindiso Magaqa - together with SboneloMyeza and MkulekoMpofana. Judge Mluleki Chithi adjourned the case to the 3rd of June for the defence to finalise arrangements. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to SABC reporter Ayanda Mhlongo
