The prosecutor in the Senzo Meyiwa murder trial, George Baloyi, told the Pretoria high court on Wednesday next witness feared a social media “onslaught” if she testified live on camera. According to attorney representing electronic media Dan Rosengarten, the state made generalised points that she fears for her life. He said the application for a ban on the live broadcast was a publicity stunt.
