I sent for the record and discovered that 3rd October, 1961, was fixed for the trial of the accused along with eight other persons, but on this date, the Public Prosecutor did not produce any witness and the Court adjourned it for the next day.

In fairness ho should have told the trial Judge of his intention to mo...
