: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.
:48:03
We have three police graphologists
who will swear that it is.
:48:06
Only three?
:48:09
You see, Dr. Hassiem found...
:48:12
that the abrasions
on the prisoner's neck were... Oh, yes.
:48:16
"Were not made by rope, but chains."
:48:19
Objection! Where is the witness
for this assertion, Your Worship?
:48:24
Dr. Hassiem is my witness.
:48:26
You know that Dr. Hassiem
is not available to testify.
:48:30
I am also aware that he can be summoned
by Your Worship to this courtroom.
:48:34
And he will be accompanied
by armed guards...
:48:36
then chained, neck, hand, and foot...
:48:39
and all in a matter of minutes.
:48:41
I'm afraid we cannot dismiss acts of treason
just when we like, Mr. McKenzie.
:48:46
Are you at all concerned, Your Worship,
that he might be carrying...
:48:51
some explosive charges
in one of the recesses of his body...
:48:55
with the intention of blowing
this entire courtroom to smithereens?
:48:59
Mr. McKenzie, I must caution you
as to your remarks.
