Meyiwa trial on hold

-

PRETORIA - The Senzo Meyiwa murder trial has again been delayed after proceeding­s ceased yesterday due to Defence Advocate Sipho Ramosepele saying he did not feel well.

Ramosepele was cross-examining Meyiwa’s close friend and fourth witness in the murder trial, Mthokozisi Thwala, when he alerted the High Court of Pretoria that he was not feeling well.

He started cross-examinatio­n yesterday by asking Thwala how he slept at night.

Meyiwa was gunned down in what was described as a botched robbery in the presence of his then-girlfriend Kelly Khumalo, her mother Ntombi, sister Zandi, Zandi’s boyfriend Longwe Twala and Senzo’s friends Thwala and Tumelo Madlala.

LONDON - King Charles fears Prince Harry will be a no-show at the coronation, according to a royal expert, after what has been described as a ‘last-minute power play’. After months of speculatio­n it was eventually confirmed Harry would be jetting back to the UK for the big day, with Meghan Markle remaining in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Archie turns four on the same day as the coronation. However, Fox News royal expert Neil Sean claims palace courtiers told him

Muzikawukh­ulelwa Sibiya, Bongani Sandiso Ntanzi, Mthobisi Prince Mncube, Mthokozise­ni Maphisa and Sifisokuhl­e Nkani Ntuli are standing trial for the murder of the footballer. They have been charged with premeditat­ed murder, attempted murder, robbery with aggravatin­g circumstan­ces, possession of firearms without a licence and possession of ammunition. All have pleaded not guilty.

Prince Harry. they still have no idea what plane the Duke of Sussex is coming on, or even what day and time he’ll be arriving here.

Tragically

A source told Sean: “Until we see him at the castle gates being driven up by the Met Police security here in England, then we won’t believe he is coming and that tragically is the feeling of the King.” Sean described it as a ‘last-minute power play’.

He said that with Harry involved in a PR battle with his father and Prince William, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ‘could get even more publicity if he fails to show up’.
