CHAIRPERSON
Mr Samuels, you are his representative, you undertook to represent him, you obviously, unless I'm drastically wrong, have consulted with him and you know more or less what his versions or what his version is.  All we are asking from one officer of the law to another, is he likely to admit to committing a crime?  If so, I will accept what you say and then we can carry on.  If not, then you know what the position is.
