BY GWEN LISTER THE BRITISH-BASED, former public relations consultants of the interim government, Trevor Lloyd­ Hughes Associates, have confirmed that they are con­ sidering legal action against the Cabinet following the cancellation of their contract. Sir Trevor Lloyd-Hughes, who heads the PR firm, has taken strong exception to the way in which their contract was terminat- ed. . 'I want to protect my reputation' he said, while confirming that the matter was in the hands of his Lon­ don attorneys. Speaking to The Namibian from his London office, Sir Trevor said that no reasons had been given for the cancellation of his contract, which had been in force for five years. The former Press Secretary to British Labour Prime Minister, Sir Harold Wilson (1964 to 1969) would not reveal the amount involved, but said that he had been paid 'on a con­ sultancy fee basis with justifiable expenses'.

Strange remarks

IT IS INEXPLICABLE to us that a Judge of the Supreme Court should suggest that evidence on police brutality was not relevant to a case in which not only the accused, but also several State witnesses gave evidence of having been tortured while in detention.

We are referring to the statements made by Mr Justice Chris Mouton before passing sentence on two Swapo members, Sam Mundjindji and Veiko Nghitewa, convicted of being accomplices to the murder of a SWABC radio announcer. In his judgement on sentence given on Wednesday, Mr Mou­ ton commented that it remained unclear to the court how allega­ tions of Police maltreatment of witnesses were related to the case. He suggested rather that the allegations by Defence Counsel Mr David Soggot amounted to an 'attack on the police' and that the relevance of the line of questioning 'never emerged'. This statement is surprising in the light of a ruling by the Judge himself in the course of the trial, to allow further cross question­ ing of witnesses on the basis that it was related to showing a 'sys­ tem of interrogational brutality'. In addition a 'confessions' made by the accused were alleged to have been the product of torture. We suggest that such evidence was not only crucial to the case itself, but also relevant to the judicial process as a whole. It must be borne in mind that the accused spent nearly a year in pre-trial detention. Where allegations of torture or brutality are made, such matters should be fully investigated and prosecutions instituted where necessary.

To remark that evidence of torture and brutality is merely 'kick­ ing up dust .. . ' is to ignore the real issues affecting fundamental human rights, and could damage the credibility of the judiciary Europe sees in this country. apartheid's SUBSCRIBE TO THE NAMIBIAN Name violent face Address SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT ......

Such a move could result in complete isolation of South African support on the international scene. Black Africa (above) and Orlando Pirates (below), are two of the sides that have regularly What this also means is that a movement, -which has membership running played at the Mainstay Cup Tournament, but would have been absent this year after failing into millions from all corners of the globe, would be ending an association as to qualify among the top four in the NNSL.
