TREASON and murder-accused politicians, Mothetjoa Metsing and Selibe Mochoboroane, have accused the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Advocate Hlalefang Motinyane, of abusing court processes and denying them the right to a fair trial.
This after DPP Motinyane opposed their application for stay of their prosecution pending their Court of Appeal application to stop their trial until after the implementation of the multi-sector reforms.
The duo argues that Adv Motinyane had initially agreed to defer their trial and her “sudden change of mind” was an abuse of court processes which was likely to deny them their constitutional right to a fair trial.
