Bloemfontein - The trial of seven policemen charged with killing protester Andries Tatane was postponed by the Ficksburg Regional Court on Monday.

The court postponed the matter to March 18, because the policemen’s defence lawyer Johann Nel is in hospital.

Tatane was killed on April 13, 2011, allegedly by police using rubber bullets, during a service delivery protest in Ficksburg.
