The legal team of Sheryl Cwele and her co accused Frank Nabolisa argued that using transcripts of intercepted cellphone calls of his clients would be unconstitutional.

Cwele’s lawyer said this at the Pietermaritzburg High Court yesterday.

The State aims on producing transcripts of calls between the two and convicted drug mule Tessa Beetge as evidence in their trial.

But Cwele’s advocate argued that the transcripts would violate his client’s privacy.

Beetge allegedly acted on the instructions of the accused when she was arrested in Brazil in 2008.
