Charges have been read out and the defence complaints read thatÂ
Bennett is being illegally detained. The magistrate has ruled that
there is enough evidence on the first charge of banditry but
insufficient on the 2nd. He does not therefore have the authority to
grant bail as it is a third schedule offence and has ruled that Roy be
held in custody until the 4th March. The defence will have to appeal to
the high court for bail.
