VZ: Why didn't you immediately tell your client "I am not involved in this. You're talking serious, serious trouble"?

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

Tongo: I could not say that to him. Traverso: The question is why not?

 

[PrimeSuspect]

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

Tongo: Because he had made some promises.

VZ: Anyway, Mrs. Dewani left the vehicle with the luggage & Mr. Dewani stays behind to pay. Can you tell the court, Mr. Dewani paid you R300, incl R50 tip. What happened? Tell the court the full story.

Tongo would never have made it in business. The man's coldhearted and foolish.

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

Tongo: The gentleman paid me an amount of R300. Because I did not have change, he said I can take the R50 change as a tip. Then the gentleman said he has a business proposal. I smiled. Hunger was over. I would have a job that weekend.
He said he was going inside for 10 mins and I should wait. He then left.

VZ: 2mins 20 sec into the 5 min period he was with you, one can see the front door being opened. Did you give him the business card?

Tongo: I gave it

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

VZ: Did this business proposal happen before you gave the business card? Tongo: I estimate it happened after

Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago

VZ: After you have given the business card, did you receive any phone calls? Tongo: I can't remember

VZ: Two calls to be exact. From the same number. Can you recall that?
