Data found on cellphones allegedly confiscated from two of the accused in the Senzo Meyiwa trial will be unsealed in court on Wednesday morning.
On Monday, testimony was heard detailing how the phones were allegedly found while Bongani Ntanzi and Fisokuhle Ntuli were in custody.
Ntanzi and Ntuli are among five men accused of the Orlando Pirates goalkeeper’s 2014 murder.
Lieutenant-Colonel Gideon Gouws analyzed the data from the phones allegedly found on Ntanzi in February 2021 and Ntuli in August 2020.
His testimony was halted when he tried to make an amendment to his affidavit while on the witness stand.
The defence’s Advocate Zandile Mshololo argued that the accused were being prejudiced.
“We have not been furnished with a supplementary affidavit. We do not know what’s the information that will be supplemented. We are taken by surprise as the witness wishes to explain and amend the paragraph as he likes.”
The matter took an early adjournment on Monday for Gouws to make a supplementary affidavit detailing the changes he would like to make.
He’s expected to make revelations in court on Wednesday morning on the data found on the cellphones.
