Good morning. I note we have had a delay in starting this morning and I understand that emanates from a problem with the LiveNote, particularly on your side of the Court, Ms Baly. Has that been rectified?
-
It has been rectified, thank you, your Honour.

In that case I will proceed on and take appearances.

This morning for the Prosecution, Christopher Santora, Ruth Mary Hackler and myself, Julia Baly.

Thank you, Ms Baly. Yes, Mr Anyah?

Thank you, Mr Anyah. If there are no other matters I will remind the witness of his oath.
Good morning, Mr Witness.

Good morning.

I wish to remind you this morning that yesterday you made a solemn declaration to tell the truth. The promise therein remains binding on you and you must answer questions truthfully. Do you understand?
