One of the accused in the Boeremag treason trial has been rushed to hospital after falling ill in the dock.
Gerhardus Visagie is one of the five men who unsuccessfully attempted to escape from the North Gauteng High Court during proceedings yesterday.
Visagie collapsed shortly after one of the defence advocates, Louisa van der Walt, resumed her final legal argument, resulting in the trial being delayed for a further day.
Two of the original 22 Boeremag accused, Herman Scheepers and Frederick Boltman, have died since the trial started eight years ago.
