The kidnapping trial into the case of seven-year-old Joshlin Smith is underway in Saldanha Bay.
The girl's mother and two co-accused are expected to take a stand on the dock.
The little girl went missing from her home in the Middlepos informal settlement last February. The state alleges that she was kidnapped and trafficked.
