CHAIRPERSON
I just want you to deal with this.  In your application, paragraph 9(a)(i) you were asked to say what act you committed in respect of the offences for which you make application.  There you say you assaulted the deceased with a stick.  At best for you the deceased is the plural there.  I just want you to explain even if it was one of the deceased that was referred to there.  Explain that to me if you say in your evidence that you never hit anybody?
