Malesela Teffo, the controversial advocate who was recently stripped of his right to work as a lawyer, appeared briefly in the Johannesburg magistrate's court on Wednesday.
Advocate Malesela Teffo, who represented four of the accused in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial, has alleged that a plan to get him off the murder trial was hatched in President Cyril Ramaphosa’s office. What do you think?
Some of the men accused of killing soccer player Senzo Meyiwa were visibly shocked on Tuesday when their lawyer Malesela Teffo told the high court in Pretoria he was withdrawing from the case.
The murder rate increased by 45.2%, meaning that 437 more people were killed compared to the same time during the previous year while 966 were killed in 2020, before the Covid-19 lockdown was effected.
