Kimberley - The trial of a 17-year-old boy accused of murdering the Steenkamp family on their farm near Griekwastad was postponed to next Wednesday.
Northern Cape Judge President Frans Kgomo would hear final arguments then, he said on Wednesday.
He is hearing evidence in the trial of the boy, accused of killing farmer Deon Steenkamp, 44, his wife Christel, 43, and their daughter Marthella, 14. They were shot dead on their farm Naauwhoek on April 6, 2012.
The State alleges the boy shot and killed the Steenkamps, raped the girl, and lied to the police.
