The lawyer for the fourth accused in the Senzo Meyiwa trial has argued that one of the State’s key witnesses clearly had an axe to grind with the accused.
Mthokoziseni Maphisa is the only accused who has brought a section 174 discharge application.
Senzo Meyiwa trial
Maphisa is one of four men accused of the football star’s 2014 murder.
His lawyer, Advocate Zithulele Nxumalo, addressed the court on what he deems are discrepancies in the State’s case.

This application is brought when the defense believes the state has failed to present enough evidence for a conviction. @ewnreporter pic.twitter.com/wAcxD9bLw0
