The Oscar Pistorius trial is about to begin again, with speculation that Oscar will be the first witness to testify, as is normal in a criminal case. Another major case is about to start of course, and that is the Dewani case with probably South Africa’s least favoured international guest, Shrien Dewani arriving in South Africa for his trial.  We have made an agreement with the British authorities that if his mental condition deteriorates, he will be returned and it is hard to imagine that his condition will not deteriorate when he is put into a South African jail, however much special comfortable arrangements are no doubt made for him.  A flight from your home to a country where you no longer have any of your friends, or your supporters, and where you are accused of committing a terrible deed, as well as new circumstances, is quite likely to provoke anybody into a state of depression, let alone a man who appears, from all accounts what we have heard so far, to be unstable in the first place.  The evidence seems overwhelming and I really do hope that a proper job is done so that Shrien Dewani may face justice.  One thing is for sure, the media is going to be incredibly busy this week with court case stories!
