The accused wants the court to disregard the confession statement he made to police about the January 2018 abduction and killing, saying it was made under duress.
He testified that he did not tell the officer who was taking down his statement about the assault, nor did he tell the one who took him on the “pointing out” exercise.
“There is someone I told though. I told Mr Sibisi, the attorney who was representing me in a lower court. When we went to court, he mentioned it. I think it was during the bail application but the prosecutor dismissed it. Sibisi promised me that this was not the last of the matter and it would come back again at a later stage,” he said.
“She wanted to slap me and the officer stopped her, saying there are cameras in this office,” he said.
