The trial into the murder of former Bafana Bafana captain and goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa is expected to resume in the Gauteng High Court in Pretoria on Tuesday.

On Monday, defence advocate Malesela Teffo asked to eject popular documentary maker Netflix from the courtroom. 

Teffo first claimed that Netflix was not a media house and was purely at court to turn a profit.

He added that the production house was not in court to inform the public. 

Teffo represents four of the five men accused of killing Meyiwa.

Meyiwa was shot dead while visiting singer Kelly Khumalo – the mother of his child – in October 2014.
