The trial of eight former members of the Presidential Protection Unit resumes.

Yesterday, the matter was rolled over to today to give the defence sufficient time to present its video footage.

According to the defence, the video shows one of the victims removing beer bottles from the vehicle in which they were travelling. The eight police officers were responsible for the protection of Deputy President Paul Mashatile when the incident occurred. The National Prosecuting Authority’s Spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane says, “We will deal with the video that the defence says it’s an extension of what the state has provided to the court. We will await that process. Obviously, the video still has to be authenticated but the court has provisionally accepted the video.
