Bianca Parsons case: More footage of shooting shown in court
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The state has produced video footage they believe will prove that Christopher Housten was more involved in Bianca Parsons' murder.
Parsons was gunned down at a petrol station on the Bluff almost a year ago.
Housten has previously told the court time and time again that he had nothing to do with the planning or the weapon used in Parsons murder and was simply driving the vehicle.
Yesterday, his co-accused in the case, Darryl Murrisson pleaded guilty to murder charges and told the court in his plea that Housten had nothing to do with the case and even tried to stop him.
However the state rejected Murrissons version of events.
The Investigating officer in the case, Erugubathie Naidoo has taken to the stand with footage of the murder playing behind him.
Yesterday, Murrisson pleaded guilty to the crime. In his guilty plea, Murrisson said Housten was not involved.
But the State has rejected his version of events. Murrisson's plea was then changed to not guilty.

On the first three video clips acquired from the garage, Housten can be seen stopping at the shop and getting out of his vehicle before putting something silver in the back of his pants.
A second clip shows him walking around the store with an unusual bulge in his back pocket.
The third clip shows Housten opening his car door and fiddling with something. A flash of silver is again seen on the screen.
Murrisson also pulls up his shirt in the clip and seems to be unarmed. In a third clip shown in court minutes before the shooting, Houston's vehicle is seen reversing behind Parsons car.
