NATIONAL NEWS - Murder accused Henri van Breda on Monday concluded giving evidence.
It follows days of often gruelling cross-examination.
The prosecution argues that blood spatter evidence and the crime scene do not match his version of events.
Prosecutor Susan Galloway has ended her cross-examination by arguing that the accused only ever lost his memory at times when it suited him.
Galloway says these "selective memory loss" instances arose at the most incriminating parts of the State's case.
The prosecutor has questioned why his testimony in court differed from his police statement.
