discussion at African Crisis, by African Crisis readers, discuss Respondents News Article /m broadband.co.za/news/Cellular/698.html), namely the source of this complaint to the sman. Such readers have provided a new 'news' link to Respondents 'old' erroneous news resurrecting it into the news, for all African Crisis news readers. Furthermore such als discussing Respondents News Article, appear to assume, that Respondents NewsArticle ions were correct; and not erroneous, as the Complainant has informed the Respondent.

I imag e, such readers of Respondents News Article, plausibly also assume that if the Respondent had m de an error, then the Respondents Professional Honourable Standards would require them to cor ct the error, and they would have printed such a correction, would be available to the Compl inant. Since no such corrections have been printed, and are accordingly not available to the Co plainant to share with such individuals, it is assumed, that the Complainant must be, either liar, or delusional. Considering the context of the erroneous allegations in the Respo dents news article, one can hardly blame the readers, of the Respondents erroneous report for coming to such conclusions.

How could I escape from where, Anon? Observation?

Well it is -- I guess -- possible that the SAP A news article is correct, and I was sent for observation, and I am such a freaking nutcase that I don't remember. That is -- I

guess -- possible. Anyway, just in case I am 'out of my mind' or a 'freaking nutcase' I did file a written request with the SAP and NP A to provide the evidence for the statements made in this SAPA news article.

Neither the SAP, nor the NP A, have yet provided the evidence that I was sent for observation, or the final report; and I ain't got any evidence that I was sent for observation, nor do I recall being sent for observation.

Here is my request to the NP A for their evidence that I was sent for observation, and the subsequent observation report. http://crimeninuria.blogspot.com/2009/02/09-02-17 -npa-prioritv-crimeslitigation.html http://crimeninuria.blogspot.com/2009/0 I /for-record-state- v- iohnstone-crimen.html Doc. Title: For the Record: State v Johnstone; 'Crimen Inuria': Incomplete Further Particulars, 28 Dec 2008 wherein proof is requested from the State, of some of the issues referred to in this SAPA article, as alleged fact: Excerpt from letter herewith provided: ---------------- excerpt -----------------Outstanding Evidentiary Documentation: 'Outstanding Warrants': Two Alleged 'Outstanding Warrants', used by SAP INSP. Christian, to plausibly irregularly or illegally arrest and detain Defendant in this Crimin Inuria Matter, on 18 July 2007.

At the time of Inspector Christian's arrest of Defendant, Inspector Christian stated his justification for the Arrest were two outstanding Warrants, one allegedly in Pietermaritzburg and one in Port Elizabeth.

Defendant requested proof and copies of these alleged Outstanding Warrants, as per the Constitutional Principle "to be informed ofthe charge with sufficient detail to answer it." Inspector Christian refused to provide proof of these alleged outstanding warrants, and proceeded to arrest and detain Defendant.

The proof of these alleged Outstanding Warrants used to arrest and detain Defendant on 18 July 2007, have yet to be provided by Inspector Christian, the South African Police Services, or the National Prosecuting Authority; and were requested from the SAPS and the National Prosecuting Authority, by Lara Johnstone; from Attorney Mr. Malcolm Gezzler, by Lara and Andre Johnstone, and Attorney Mr. Milton de La Harpe, by Lara Johnstone.

Outstanding Due Process Documentation: Referral to Forensic Psychologist, Forensic Psychologist's Report; and subsequent State Psychological Report: At approximately 10 am, on 19 July 2007, while awaiting to appear in court, in the Magistrate Court cells, the SAPS informed the Defendant she was being taken to 'the Doctor'. At no time did the Defendant request to see any Doctor. The Defendant requested the Police to provide written reasons, for why she was being required to see a Doctor, without her request for seeing any Doctor. The Police laughed and told

her to 'Shut Up and do as you are told'. The Defendant was taken by the SAPS to the Family Planning & Community Health Services to see Forensic Psychologist, Dr. Theo Dahms.

The Defendant refused to answer any of Dr. Theo Dahms questions (Annex: Woman Defies Court Over Rude De Lille SMSs, SAP A); until she was provided with written documentation, proving (i) her arrest and detention to have been lawful, i.e. provided evidence of the alleged outstanding Warrants, and their relevant legal validity; and (ii) written documentation, including written reasons (South African Constitution ยง 32 & 33: Access to Information and Just Administrative Action; Criminal Procedure Act ยง 77 - 79: Accused: Capacity to Understand Proceedings: Mental Illness and Criminal Responsibility) by the alleged court official who alleged the Defendant was required to see a Forensic Psychologist, as a result of her being incapable of understanding Proceedings, due to Mental Illness.

The Defendant was returned to Magistrate Court Holding Cells; and requested a telephone call to arrange for an Attorney. The SAPS refused to allow the Defendant a telephone call, to arrange for an Attorney. The Defendant accordingly refused to enter the Court Room, without having been provided with her right to a telephone call to arrange for an attorney to represent her in court to apply for bail on her behalf.

The SAPS continued to refuse her the opportunity to make a telephone call, until the end of court day, and subsequently the Defendant was transferred to Pollsmoor Prison, by the SAPS; where she remained until 22 August, when Attorney Mr. Malcolm Gezzler, and Advocate Gary Beale, represented her in a bail hearing, where she was granted bail. The bail was granted upon the alleged legal validity, authenticity and existence of the still outstanding Warrants, used to arrest and detain Defendant; which to this date have yet to be provided by the SAPS. SA Constitution: 32 (1) Everyone has the right of access to (a) any information held by the state; and (b) any information that is held by another person and that is required for the exercise or protection of any rights; 33 (1) Everyone has the right to administrative action that is lawful, reasonable and procedurally fair (2) Everyone whose rights have been adversely affected by administrative action has the right to be given written reasons.

Criminal Procedure Act: 78 (lA) Every accused person is presumed not to suffer from a mental illness or mental defect so as not to be criminally responsible in terms of section 78(1), until the contrary is proved on a balance of probabilities.

78 (IB) Whenever the criminal responsibility of an accused with reference to the commission of an act or an ommission which constitutes an offence is an issue, the burden of proof with reference to the criminal responsbility of the accused shall be on the party who raises the issue.

I can only provide you with the information and evidence available to me.

I cannot make your decisions for you; nor would I wnat to. I subscribe to the principle as enunciated by John Holt and John Galt: 'Who thinks the State should tell our children what to think?'

I can only provide you with the information available to me; and answer any questions you may have as best I can.

Woman defies court over rude De Lille SMSs 19 July, 2007 07:17:09 A woman who allegedly sent rude SMSs to politician Patricia de Lille -- and then refused to appear in the Cape Town Magistrate's Court -- was sent for psychiatric observation on Thursday.

De Lille is the leader ofthe Independent Democrats political party.

Lara Johnstone (40) is charged with crimen injuria, and prosecuting authorities are yet to decide whether to add intimidation to the charges.

No details of the crimen injuria charge were given when prosecutor Thembela Yawa called her case in the Cape Town Magistrate's Court.

According to the charge sheet, Johnstone was arrested on Wednesday.

When her case was called, a court orderly went to the court's holding cells to fetch her, but returned without her and explained that she was violent, swearing and abusive, and refused to be brought into the courtroom.

The magistrate noted on the court record: "Accused refuses to be brought to court.

She is abusive and hostile."

Also on the record was a letter from the forensic services section of the Community Health Services Organisation, in which Theo Dahms stated: "She is totally uncooperative, and refuses to answer any of my questions. She simply walked out of the room.

"I can therefore not comment on her mental condition, but would think if she persists in this way she needs to be sent for psychiatric observation."

Johnstone was remanded in her absence to September 22, when her psychiatric assessment is to be handed to the court. http://mybroadband.co.za/news/Cellular/ http://www.ecologynews.com/cuenews33

Date Posted: Monday 23-Mar-2009 Deutscher, Hi. It appears you have never met a black man of honour and integrity. I don't blame you therefore, they are perhaps an endangered species. But to be fair, I can't say I know hundreds of white men with honour and integrity either. I judge a man or a woman, based on their character Sir; not their skin colour, alleged religion or political ideology; but whether they walk their talk, practice what they preach, kind of thing. I've met white k*ffirs, black k*ffirs, coloured k*ffirs, christian k*ffirs, and muslim k*ffirs; just depends on your definition of the word 'k*ffir'.

Anyway, you are more than welcome to your interpretation of my character; without knowing me, and without the honour and integrity to notify me personally, of your opinion about me, for my response. The fact that you lack the honour to inform someone directly of the criticism you have of their behaviour, indicates that honour ain't a high priority for you, in terms of your personal values and principles. That's okay. For me honour is; and I value anothers character based on the quality of honour in their character, irrespective ofthier ethnicity, religion or otherwise.

Perhaps that may change; I too was once someone who valued my hate and fear for a group of people, more than my love for values of honour, honesty and integrity.

Respectfully, Lara Johnstone
