Tongo is adamant: The man was pushing the trolley. We were standing inside at the door, waiting for the female he said was in his company.

Tongo: He is correct in saying I accompanied him. We walked to the door. That is where we waited.

VZ: Let's proceed

VZ: Is it possible that they told you & you've forgotten? Tongo: I can't remember them telling me that.

VZ: At the time, were you a bachelor? Tongo: Correct

VZ: SD will tell the court that you told them that you were a bachelor. He wouldn't have that info unless you told him.

Tongo can't remember details of airport meeting, what they told him. It was 4 years ago but defence finding inconsistencies.

Tongo: I do remember him telling me that he is married. I don't remember the party of his friends throwing a party in Las Vegas and he didn't tell me he was on honeymoon.

Traverso: How did it come about that you told him you are a bachelor?

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

Tongo: He told me he is married, then I said I am a bachelor, I enjoy being a bachelor and he must enjoy his marriage.

Tongo: he (Dewani) never told me he was on honeymoon.

VZ: you were introduced to his wife at the airport building. Why would he say he was married in the taxi?
