Dina Rodriguez trial starts today

The trial of five people accused of ordering and carrying out the murder of baby Jordan Leigh Norton will start in the Cape High Court on Monday. Dina Rodrigues is accused of hiring Sipho Mfazwe, Mongezi Bobotyane, Zanethemba Gwada, and a 16-year-old youth to kill the six-month-old baby in June 2005. Norton was stabbed to death with a knife after four men gained access to her grandparents' home on the pretext of delivering a parcel. A safe was also stolen. Rodrigues' bail of 20-thousand rands was withdrawn last year after she broke her bail conditions by contacting witnesses in the case.
