Theunissen - The trial of the driver of the vehicle involved in a crash in which OFM presenter Lindsay Batteson-Kritzinger was killed, will start in the Theunissen district court today.
Phaga Nyela indicated during an earlier court appearance that he would plead not guilty to all charges against him.
