:52:01
Captain Stolz,
would you have this court believe...

:52:04
that this man tried to throw himself
through the window forwards...

:52:09
and being frustrated in that effort...
:52:11
he turned himself round...
:52:13
and with great force, threw himself
backwards towards the window?

:52:17
Evidently.
:52:19
Would you care to demonstrate that
for this court?

:52:22
No.
:52:24
Very well.
:52:26
Now, as for the very special
and good works of your Special Branch.

:52:32
The seventh right rib broken.
:52:34
The right arm broken.
:52:36
Blood clots on the brain.
:52:39
The whole body covered with bruises.
:52:42
Are you too ashamed
to look at these photographs, sir?

:52:49
Here's one that might please you indeed.
:52:52
His jaw broken.
:52:54
His nose broken.
:52:55
His cheekbone crushed.
:52:57
His eye hanging out of its socket
and dangling on the crushed cheekbone.

:53:02
And marks and evidence...
:53:04
of excessive burns on his genitals.
:53:10
And all that...
:53:12
while this man was trying
to get out of a window?

:53:25
Get them out!
:53:29
Get those people who caused
this disruption out of the courtroom!

:53:34
And the rest of you, keep silent,
or you'll get the same treatment.

:53:39
Now, Mr. McKenzie.
:53:42
What is it that you're trying to prove
with this idiotic recitation?

:53:49
What...
:53:52
I am vainly trying to prove...
:53:55
with this idiotic recitation, sir...
:53:59
is the fact that it was not Gordon Ngubene...
