:46:02
The deceased was arrested
on the 27th of July, was he not?
:46:07
Yes.
:46:08
And what was the reason
for Gordon Ngubene's apprehension?
:46:12
He was in possession of
incriminating documents.
:46:15
I have an objection.
:46:17
Good morning, Captain Stolz.
:46:20
Good morning, Mr. McKenzie.
:46:23
We have before us
no evidence whatsoever...
:46:26
that these documents were incriminating,
Your Worship.
:46:31
Can you not give us an example,
Captain Stolz?
:46:34
Yes. He subscribed to a newspaper
called The World For Black Workers.
:46:38
Well, I subscribe to
The World For Black Workers.
:46:42
Do you suppose, Your Worship,
that places me...
:46:45
in some jeopardy of arrest and detainment?
:46:48
I have nothing to add, Your Worship.
:46:51
Objection overruled. Continue
with your evidence, Advocate Louw.
:46:56
I beg your pardon, Your Worship.
Did you say that my objection is overruled?
:47:01
Yes, overruled.
:47:05
Now, tell the court about his death.
:47:07
I was called at 605 hours.
:47:10
I was notified that the detainee was
hanging by a rope tied to the window bars.
:47:15
Yes. And then?
:47:17
I summoned Dr. Jansen
to make a post mortem.
:47:20
Thank you, Captain Stolz.
:47:23
Are you aware, Captain Stolz...
:47:26
that a post mortem examination
was carried out...
:47:29
on behalf of the Ngubene family?
:47:33
Yes. By Dr. Hassiem,
whose signature is also there.
:47:37
And where is the good doctor now?
:47:39
- Detained.
- Under what charge?
:47:40
The Internal Security Act.
:47:42
Is this his signature?
:47:46
Yes, thank you.
:47:54
It is.
:47:56
I have a graphologist who will swear...
:47:59
that this is not Dr. Hassiem's signature.
