All closing argument in the Fred van der Vyver trial ended on Tuesday with both the state and defence resting.
Judge Deon van Zyl said that he and his two assessors would deliver the judgement on November 29th.
In Tuesday’s proceedings, prosecutor Carien Teunissen presented to the court the State’s reply to the defence’s closing argument, which was delivered last Thursday.
Teunissen again called for Van der Vyver’s conviction on the charge of murder.
Under South African law, the state gets a ‘double shot’ in closing arguments, being able to reply to the defence’s closing arguments. The defence only gets one opportunity to close.
