And building a case that accurately depicts the events that took place.
We are very careful when questioning witnesses, to prevent causing further harm.
But still try to find a way for the witness to tell their story and give evidence.
We are on a genuine search to uncover the truth of what happened.
To present a strong case supported by reliable and credible evidence.
So the judges can come to a full and reasoned decision and justice can be done.
