Initially, the trial against four men alleged to have kidnapped an 11-year-old boy and demanded R1 million ransom was meant to start in January in the Ntuzuma Magistrate’s Court. Nearly eight months later the trial kicking off has been marred by delays as two attorneys dump one of the accused allegedly over fees. On Tuesday it was postponed to give the accused’s new attorney time to consult.
