Baby Jordan trial postponed

The Baby Jordan Leigh Norton murder trial in the Cape Town High Court has been postponed for two days. The five accused - Dina Rodrigues, Zanethemba Gwada, Sipho Mfazwe, Mongezi Bobotyane and a 16-year-old youth - have pleaded not guilty to all charges, including murder and conspiracy to murder. The state alleges 24-year old Rodrigues promised the men 10-thousand rands to murder the 6-month old baby in June last year. Judge Basheer Wagley ordered the postponement, as one of the prosecutors involved in the case is ill.
