THE Grahamstown High Court on Wednesday reserved judgment in the appeal against the conviction of rape handed down earlier in the year. Judgment was reserved to all for a further day of re-examining the evidence. Earlier in the day Ntini’s lawyer Advocate Jeremy Gauntlett, SC, argued that he finds fault with six critical respects of the state’s case. He said the law requires the state to produce witnesses who could corroborate flawed or inconsistent evidence — which had not been done, he argued. Ntini was convicted in May of raping 22 year old Nomengezi Matokazi at the Buffalo Park cricket grounds in East London last December.
