The six men accused of murdering Gauteng whistleblower Babita Deokaran have changed legal representatives.

On Thursday, the case against Phakamani Hadebe, Zitha Radebe, Nhlangano Ndlovu, Sanele Mbhele, Siphiwe Mazibuko and Siphakanyiswa Dladla was postponed to 18 November.

"The case was postponed for disclosure of the copies of the docket to the new lawyer," said National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane.

Deokaran was assassinated in August last year outside her house, days after she flagged suspicious payments amounting to millions.
