It's been a long wait for justice but the family of Senzo Meyiwa says they're ready for those accused of his murder to go on trial so they can continue with their lives.
JOHANNESBURG - It's been a long wait for justice but the family of Senzo Meyiwa said that they were ready for those accused of his murder to go on trial so that they could continue with their lives.
The Orlando Pirates goalkeeper was shot while visiting his girlfriend, Kelly Khumalo, at her mother’s home almost eight years ago. The group's head of private prosecutions, Gerrie Nel, said that he understood that the lawyers for one of the accused, Sifisokuhle Ntuli, needed more time to prepare for the trial.
Meyiwa's cousin, Nomalanga, said that they were hoping that the case would make some progress this week.
