Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The trial of two men accused of killing a Wentworth mother last year - is expected to start tomorrow.
Darryl Murrisson and Christopher Housten have been charged with Bianca Parsons' murder.
Parsons was shot dead while sitting in her car with her three-year-old daughter.
It's emerged in court that Parsons was killed in a case of mistaken identity, as another person had been the intended target.
Senior State prosecutor - Calvin Singh told the Durban High Court today that he was in the process of finalising trial procedures.
He said by doing this, the trial - which was initially expected to take place over three weeks - will conclude in a shorter period.
