MR CLARKE
Just to rap up I would like to set out her version of events.  She instructs me that at approximately 2 o'clock on this day, her husband had moments before set out on business to town, set out to town on business, that as she opened initially one of you entered the premises and asked her to get down a Makweta blanket from one of the top shelves.  She told whichever one of you it was that, whichever one of the three of you it was, that Makweta blankets were all the same and that you would obviously know what a Makweta blanket looks like, if you want to buy one she will get one down for you.  Moments thereafter the second accomplice entered the store with a balaclava on, got onto the counter and demanded a coke, a coca-cola drink.  She then could clearly see that there was something drastic about to happen and started moving towards the door when a third person entered, who was by all appearances keeping guard.  She was then assaulted, I mean strangled and struck with fists, choked and money was demanded.  She indicated that she could not open her till.  She then pulled the till - when one of you tried to open the till as well, she then pulled the till from the counter which was chest height, fell to the floor, it still wouldn't open.  The noise attracted her 14-year-old son.  The 14-year-old son caused the three of you to take fright, you stopped the attack and you ran away.   Do you dispute that account of events?
