Prosecution Lawyers in the ongoing Global Witness trial at Criminal Court ‘C’ have for the second time in succession pray the court for Continuance of the trial due to the lack of witnesses to testify in the much talked about case. The prosecution had presented a list of 26 witnesses to testify in the ongoing trail as part of the legal proceedings in anticipation to bring down a guilty verdict against the indictees. But from the look of things, the prosecution is currently have a difficult time in getting the witnesses most of whom are out of the Country. The Judge said the prosecution should provide all of its witnesses whether foreign or local in time for the trail or will be fined in keeping with the law. The defense counsel contended that the motion made by the prosecution for more time was bogus, and was only intended to create further delay in the trail.
