South Africa - Anni Dewani, 28, shot to death, Gugulethu, 13 Nov 2010 #1

[zwiebel]

Prison officials are in court, so there is a lot of speculation that it will be one of the three already convicted who will take the stand today.

Oh this should be good, I'm waiting for them to tell the truth which I hope that's what they're doing. Will be hard for Dewani to listen to them, imo.

Apparently large speakers have been installed in court today.

And Dewani and Anni's family have now arrived.

Hope someone else can also do some tweets. It's taken me SIX attempts to copy and paste that last one, thanks to my ipad.

Didn't Dewani mouthed to the noisy people to 'shut up'? lol So he's into crowd control too.

I can Z, sorry you're having trouble, I know how frustrating it can be, my modem was playing up a couple of months ago, kept cutting out. Got a new one now, luckily my son found a fairly cheap but good one.

#DewaniTrial Day one was dominated by Shrien's revelations about his sexuality and his, at times rocky relationship with Anni... RE

#DewaniTrial The Hindocha's are taking their seats. They were visibly upset on Monday when crime scene footage was shown in court. RE

Yes, it's the latest upgrade that Apple recommended that did it. So irritating because it's erratic. I can copy and paste one tweet just fine; the next five, six I try to do it just repastes the old tweet I pasted - or even something pasted before that!

Mziwamadoda Qwabe is thought to be today's 2nd witness. If so, it seems the State isn't wasting time #DewaniTrial #HeartNews
