Amazing moment. Botha's last question - has Henri refer to crime scene photo. Henri does his best to avoid looking at the photo.
Instead of paging through file, Henri thumbs through corner tabs. Quickly glances at photo, then closes file again.
After just 26 minutes, Botha is done with his re-examination. Court adjourned.
Really not sure what that was in aid of. A laptop bag is not a laptop. Hope Galloway picks up on this. Rudi not in bed not asleep?
