The murder trial of Bafana Bafana captain Senzo Meyiwa has been postponed because the court interpreter was unavailable on Tuesday morning.
The court heard that while the services of a backup interpreter were secured, the person is based in the Gauteng High Court sitting in Palm Ridge and could not travel to Pretoria for trial, some 83 km away.
The matter was stood down until tomorrow [Wednesday].
Judge Tshifhiwa Maumela said the postponement, even by a day was unfortunate because delays are costly.
The case continues on Wednesday.
