Court restricts media coverage of Govender brothers’ trial

By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

“Unless the media submits a formal application and receives court approval to broadcast the trial, they should only be permitted to cover and report on the plea-taking arguments presented and judgment issued.

Judge Mbuzeni Mathenjwa says no formal application has been made by the media to broadcast the proceedings.

Consequently, while the media may be present in court, they are restricted to broadcasting only the plea process, arguments presented in court, rulings made by the court, and final judgment in this matter,” says Judge Mathenjwa.
