CROSS-EXAMINATION
M.I. Hanafi Esq: you were at the scene of the incident, you would have
helped to stop the fight, you being a representative of the
village head?
PW3:
Yes and I couldn’t stop the boys from beating Ausa Umar
because I was not at the scene of crime.
M.I. Hanafi Esq: All the names you mentioned, you mentioned then
because you heard the 1st Defendant mentioning their names?
PW3:
Yes.
M.I. Hanafi Esq: If you’re at the scene of the crime, you would have
prevented Abdullahi Dikko from being killed?
PW3:
Yes of course, I cannot leave them to kill him.
M.I. Hanafi Esq: It was because you were not there they killed Abdullahi
Dikko?
PW3:
If I was there I cannot prevent him from being killed because
he was predestined to die and the only thing I did was to call
the police.
M.I. Hanafi Esq: Who actually beat you and your brother Abdullahi
Dikko?
PW3:
I cannot say because I was not there.
M.I. Hanafi Esq: That is all for the witness.
