Mookgopong, Limpopo - The murder trial of six teenagers accused of killing three children has been postponed until Friday by the Mookgopong Magistrate's Court, Limpopo police said.

Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi said on Wednesday no further details were immediately available.

The six, aged between 12 and 14, were implicated in the murders of brothers Bafana Kekana, nine, Hosea Richard Kekana, 10, and their cousin Johanna Kekana, 12, in August 2012.

The three, who lived at a Montadi Youth Care Centre, were found stoned to death. Their hands and feet had been bound with shoelaces. Johanna had been raped before being killed. - Sapa
