The first witness in the Timothy Omotoso rape trial is set to brief the media on her views after Judge Mandela Makaula’s recusal from the trial.
The briefing is set to take place at Milpark Garden Court.
Cheryl Zondi is expected to address the implications of Makaula’s recusal.
The 22-year-old will have to face Omotoso again and retell the details of her alleged rape.
During her testimony at the start of the trial, Zondi faced a bombardment of tough questions from Omotoso’s lawyer Peter Daubermann.
The Nigerian televangelist faces 63 main charges and 34 alternative counts, which include human trafficking and rape.
