The case of Xolile Mngeni and Mziwamadoda Qwabe, accused of killing honeymooner Anni Dewani, was postponed in the Western Cape High Court on Friday.
Judge Robert Henney ordered a postponement as Qwabe could no longer afford his advocate, Thabo Nogemane.
The pre-trial conference would resume on May 11, to give Qwabe time to apply for Legal Aid.
Henney said it was only fair that the new legal representative be given time to get the docket, all the statements and instructions from his clients.
The trial was set down for July 30. – Sapa
