Judge in South African Axe Murder Case Wants It to Wrap Up

Western Cape High Court Judge Siraj Desai has called for the trial against Henri Van Breda to conclude before the end of November. Van Breda, who faces charges of killing his mother, father and brother, has been diagnosed with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy after suffering a seizure which caused the case to be postponed.
