DCS clarifies parole status of Zola Tongo, one of Anni Dewani's killers
Zola Tongo was sentenced to 18 years in prison for his role in Anni Dewani's killing in 2010.
Anni’s parents and relatives intend spending Christmas together before making any decision.
The state has begun arguing why Shrien Dewani's application for an acquittal should be dismissed.
The state will have an opportunity to convince the court that Dewani has a case to answer to.
Francois van Zyl said former taxi driver Zola Tongo's version of how the plot was initiated is doubtful.
The defence wants the court to dismiss the case and acquit Shrien Dewani.
The prosecution and defence are heading for a showdown over whether Shrien Dewani should be acquitted.
Mbolombo says he expected to get paid but there was no agreement on who would pay him and when.
Shrien Dewani’s lawyer has pointed to contradictions in the testimonies of two key state witnesses.
The defence team believes Monde Mbolombo played a bigger role in Anni’s death.
State witness Zola Tongo has dismissed Dewani’s version of events as ‘lies’, ‘double lies’ and ‘nonsense’.
The defence team may call one of Zola Tongo's inmates to testify that he had pinned the entire crime on Dewani.
Francois van Zyl told the court an inmate could be called to dispute Zola Tongo's testimony.
Dewani's lawyer has revealed he has a witness who will say Tongo is lying about everything.
Shrien Dewani’s lawyer is expected to conclude his cross-examination of the state’s key witness.
Shrien Dewani's lawyer Francois van Zyl continued to highlight inconsistencies between Zola Tongo's testimony and statement during his sixth day on the witness stand on 4 November 2014.
Zola Tongo has started to sound like a stuck record, his responses repetitive and his explanations confusing.
Francois van Zyl asked Tongo why he didn’t correct mistakes in his statement when given the chance to do so.
Inconsistencies in Zola Tongo’s version have emerged over the last few days of cross-examination.
