JOHANNESBURG - The Senzo Meyiwa murder trial faces yet another delay on Thursday.
This after one of the defence lawyers fell ill, forcing an early adjournment.

Advocate Thulani Mngomezulu raised the issue as a vehicle tracking expert took the stand, after the defence withdrew their objections.
The state called the expert as a new witness to verify Longwe Twala’s movements on the night of the murder.
In August, one defence attorney alleged Twala shot Meyiwa and injured himself in the foot during a scuffle at the Khumalo home, later seeking medical attention.
The state maintains Meyiwa was killed by the five suspects on trial and the tracking data is crucial to disprove the defence team’s claim.
Elizabeth Pretorius started her testimony by describing Twala's movements when arriving in Vosloorus.
