ADV LOURENS
Mr Chairman, I wonder if I might be allowed to address an objection about this line of questioning.  The, what we have here is a record of the Appellate Division hearing the appeal.  This is a summary by the Appeal Court Judge of the evidence contained in a written confession taken by a Magistrate which this court does, which this Committee has not before it.  It may be that this is a summary of the actual words contained or the meanings contained in the confession and it is not immediately apparent that the, for example,
"She slumped to the floor and he shot her again",
are the exact words as contained in the confession.  It may be a summary of the events that took place.  One is not sure of that.  We do not have a record of the trial proceedings.  I would submit that the applicant has given an explanation.  If there are discrepancies why there should be or why there are those discrepancies, but I am in the hands of the Committee. I just thought I would bring it to you, your attention.
