Her Defence lawyer Gatera Gashabana requested for an adjournment of the hearing so his client can ‘’know the content of the file’’. I didn t have enough time to prepare the case because it was not possible to see the client. It was only yesterday on the evening, they gave us only 20 minutes and we didn t have the file. The client has the right to know the content of the file, that is why I requested for an adjournment in order to let her have the facility to prepare her defense , Lawyer Gashabana said.
