Day 250 - 15 May 96 - Page 52
1 A. No.

3 Q. As a former police officer, you would be aware of the need
4 to ensure that all exhibits were clearly marked as to who
5 had obtained them or where they had been got, when they had
6 been got?
7 A. It was not obtained as an exhibit. It was obtained as
8 an example of the leaflet that was being handed out.
9
10 Q. Can I ask you about this man that you say handed you a
11 leaflet. Can you just have a look through the photographs
12 and see if you can see him in any of the photographs.
13 A. Well, I will certainly have a look, but I doubt it.
14 I cannot remember now what I am looking for. I am looking
15 for a man who I simply have forgotten -----
16
17 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Nevertheless, you have been asked and
18 I appreciate it is six and a half years ago, but look
19 through and see if there is anyone there who rings any
20 bells for the man who handed you the leaflet.
21 A. No.
22
23 Q. Do you want him to look at your -----
24
25 MS. STEEL: He could do. There is a set of photographs that
26 are in -- I think they are in the second supplementary
27 bundle we served and they are tab 38, but -----
28 A. No, I would be -- I would not be absolutely certain
29 that anyone here was the person. I look at 22 and 23, but,
30 you know, it would be wrong of me to say it was definitely
31 him. It certainly was not the clown or the cow.
32
33 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Can you remember anything about him at all?
34 A. Not really. He was about, you know -- I do not know;
35 he was, I would say, middle 20s, something like that. He
36 had an anorak on; he had a back pack. No.
37
38 MR. MORRIS: He had an anorak and a back pack?
39 A. I think so, yes. He certainly had a back pack on. But
40 other than that I cannot remember much about him. I did
41 not pay all that much attention to him.
42
43 MS. STEEL: When you looked at these photographs the next day
44 or the day after, or whenever it was you got them
45 developed, you did not make a note of whether or not this
46 man that you had seen appeared in the photographs?
47 A. No, I was not gathering evidence for court. I was
48 observing what was going on that afternoon. That is all.
49
50 Q. But he might have been one of the organisers?
51 A. Any one of these may have been one of the organisers.
52 That was left to the agency to establish. I am not able to
53 pick out anyone from there, my Lord.
54
55 MR. JUSTICE BELL: No.
56
57 (Pause while the witness looks at the photographs)
58
59 THE WITNESS: No, I have never seen these photographs before.
