Police officer Sizwe Zungu's cross-examination will continue once the trial resumes.

Judge Ratha Mokgoatlheng said, "If I make an order that accused 5 should be attended by a doctor, will you give it to the head of the prison? I don't want this gentleman to go to Leuuwkop and be given tablets and castor oil, he must be attended by a doctor starting from today."

"I'll make it an order of the court...The court will adjourn until the order is prepared."
