The case against a Paradise Beach father accused of more than 700 charges including sexual assault was postponed in the Gqeberha High Court on Wednesday.
The State alleges that the man raped and sexually assaulted his teenage daughter over several years and would often record the acts.
The accused faces charges, among others, rape, incest, the sexual exploitation of children, sexual grooming, the creation, possession, and dissemination of child pornography, and bestiality.

When the case resumed on Wednesday, Defence Advocate Deon Erasmus indicated that the defence wanted to bring an application to reopen their case so that another witness could be called to the stand.
However, after consulting with the witness and his client, Erasmus decided not to proceed with the application.
As a result, closing arguments could not continue as scheduled.
The case was remanded to 15 April for closing arguments.
