• W2339057629 abstract "Artikel 174 van die Strafproseswet 51 van 1977 bepaal dat indien die hof by die afsluiting van die saak vir die vervolging van oordeel is dat daar geen getuienis is dat die beskuldigde die misdryf waarvan hy aangekla is, of 'n misdryf waaraan hy op die aanklag skuldig bevind kan word, gepleeg het nie, die hof 'n uitspraak van onskuldig mag lewer.Adjunkregterpresident Traverso het op 8 Desember 2014 die aansoek om ontslag, na sluiting van die vervolgingsaak teen Shrien Dewani, wat aangekla was van sameswering tot ontvoering, roof en moord van sy vrou, Anni, toegestaan. Hierdie beslissing was vir die oorledene se familie en lede van die publiek in die algemeen 'n skok en daar is klagtes teen die adjunkregterpresident by die regterlike gedragskomitee van die Regterlike Dienskommissie aanhangig gemaak.Die toepassing van artikel 174 van die Strafproseswet, asook die toepassing daarvan in die Dewani-uitspraak, word bespreek. Daar word verwys na die beginsels wat artikel 174 in 'n demokratiese bestel onderle, naamlik die swygreg van 'n beskuldigde en die verbod teen selfinkriminasie. Die toepassing van die akkusatoriese stelsel van die strafprosesreg in Suid-Afrika word behandel en daar word besin of die openbare mening heers dat sekere reels daarvan die persepsie by die gemeenskap kan skep dat dit nie die waarheid openbaar nie en gevolglik onregverdig is. Die klagtes wat teen die adjunkregterpresident ingedien is, word geevalueer. Daar word argumenteer dat die hof in Dewani die toepaslike regsbeginsels suiwer toegepas het en nie voor die openbare mening, naamlik dat die beskuldigde op sy verdediging geplaas moes word, geswig het nie.Daar word tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat alhoewel die openbare mening 'n rol tydens die uitleg en toepassing van die Grondwet en die strafprosesreg speel, dit ondergeskik is aan die langtermynwaardes wat die Grondwet poog om te verwesenlik.Discharge of the accused at the close of the case for the prosecution : public opinion and the right to a fair trial in terms of the accusatorial system of criminal procedureAccording to section 174 of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of 1977 a court may, at the close of the case for the prosecution, if it is of the opinion that there is no evidence that the accused committed the offence referred to in the charge sheet or any other offence of which the accused may be convicted of, return a verdict of not guilty. This procedure is referred to as a discharge at the end of the case for the prosecution.On 8 December 2014 the deputy judge president of the Western Cape high court, Traverso DJP, granted an application for the discharge of the accused in the case of Shrien Dewani, who was accused of conspiring to kidnap, rob and murder his wife Anni. The decision of the court to discharge the accused came as a shock to the deceased's family and the public in general. Two public interest groups, the Higher Education Transformation Network and the Justice4ANNI Campaign, subsequently lodged complaints against the decision of the deputy judge president with the judicial conduct committee of the Judicial Services Commission.In this contribution the application of section 174 of the Criminal Procedure Act, as well as the application thereof in the Dewani case, are set out and discussed. It is trite law that the term no evidence does not mean no evidence at all, but that it means no evidence upon which a reasonable court acting carefully might convict the accused. The test was originally interpreted as a two-stage inquiry: first, it should be asked whether there is evidence upon which a reasonable man acting carefully might convict the accused; if not, it should secondly be determined whether there is a reasonable possibility that the defence evidence might supplement the state's case. If the answer to either question is yes, there should be no discharge and the accused should be placed on his defence." @default.
