Not a credible witness. Maybe the drugs are to blame.
Regarding the confusion around the time when Applolis arrived: it is trite that people living in subeconomical circumstances have no objective means to determine time.
Prima, facie for those who don't know means face value
The evidence the state presents in court
5:35:05 Shows who at the top can be bought.
Follow the money. Follow the politics.

I'm sorry but i believe him. Its not Boeta and Stefano, they werte instrumental, but did not orchestrate it.
And he would have told Kelly and she would have made it a point for people to know that Boeta has been assaulted.

The truth is to hard for the Zulus
The coughing subject must be escorted out…..yerrr
I honestly feel for Boeta's mom/family member. I can see the love and fear on her face and body language. No dedicated parent wants to see her child in court/jail. Mrs Appolis I pray for your strength as well as for the truth.
