The Sport of Justice (and War)


The Victoria Cross SAS chap here pursuing defamation against media outlets has had some damning evidence presented against from a number of witnesses, with more challenged to appear. The fear of these incriminating themselves the current problem. One bound Afghan was allegedly kicked off a cliff by the decorated veteran and at least one other shot in the back of the head (also a bound prisoner). 

A feast for the lawyers regardless. 

“I can concede frankly,” Senior Counsel for the defendant addressing the Justice, “that it is possible for me to win this case without succeeding in proving the murder at Siah Chow, and it won’t shock Your Honour to learn that I hope to do so… But,” the man continues, “it is equally possible I could win this case by only proving the murder at Siah Chow. It is an independent path home to victory.”

The media organisations were “seeking to rely on a defence of truth.” Ultimately the law would triumph.

Legal fees for the prosecution were being funded by a patriotic oligarch here.


NB. A few days later the Australian High Commissioner to India was asked about the recent free trade agreement between the two countries, when India was continuing to refuse joining the condemnation of the Russians. That was no matter, the Commissioner answered. Friends could follow different sporting teams.
