The hearing has continued with several orders issued by the court's chairman and with her proposals for the hearing of other witnesses for the coming months.
Mapie Veldt-Foglia has made it known that the court will be able to hear only one witness per week has declared that hearing two witnesses will remain for January.
She has said that the administrative office has been announced over the following months that the fourth session of the session cannot be held, and that applies every day. So according to her, the court for a week will only be able to hear one witness, except if the time of the questions assessed by the Special Prosecutor's Office is no more than two hours.
The trial “Trug proposes to follow the rule proposed by the SPS except witnesses 4391, 4390 and 4676. The jury's proposal is that we also have to look at availability and other reasons, is to hear witness testimony 4676 in November 17-19th 2021 and witness testimony 4391 and 4390 between November 22nd and 26th. The reason for this proposed change is because on November 22nd, the court has access to the victims' parties and defenders, we have no more than three days to listen to witnesses”, the head of the court said.
She has said witnesses 4601 and 4484 are expected to be heard in January 2022.
Because of the timing of the hours, then, for the 4485 witness trial will most likely be assigned to testify during December 13th-15th, and witnesses 4601 and 4484 will most likely give the testimony in January 2022. I don't expect you to react any longer, but this is our concrete proposal regarding three witnesses,”, she said.

Also Z The SP will announce no later than October 15th, 2021, which materials included in protocols' pre-procedure 128 can be classified as public if there are and considered as accepted”, Foglia said.
