Joshlin Smith trial | Judgment expected today
Judge Nathan Erasmas will hand down judgment today in the High Court in Saldanha Bay, Western Cape, in the Joshlin Smith kidnapping and human trafficking case.
This as the two-month-long trial drew to a close after final arguments by lawyers of the accused on Wednesday.
The trio, Joshlin’s mother Kelly Smith, Jacquen Appollis and Steveno van Rhyn are on trial in connection with the child’s disappearance from her home in February last year.
After much anticipation from the public over the disappearance of 7-year-old Smith, the case against her mother, Kelly, her boyfriend, Appollis, and Van Rhyn is at its final stage.
