The SA National Editors’ Forum (Sanef) welcomes the ruling by Judge Joseph Raulinga of the North Gauteng High Court to allow a limited number of journalists and members of the public to witness the proceedings in the Eugene Terre’blanche murder trial in Ventersdorp.
The ruling to have 14 journalists, four relatives of the deceased and 16 members of the general public to hear the minor accused’s testimony via closed circuit television, in a separate room, satisfies the need to balance the interests of the child and that of the exceptional public interest in the sensational case. The hearing is set for May next year.
