I accept fully that if courts are going to be disturbed or upset, we cannot have that. Justice has to be done in public and be seen to be done in public. Justice behind closed doors is not proper justice. There are serious question marks about certain cases, including a case that is in the Court of Appeal today involving another farmer who has been imprisoned on foot of a warrant. Many of these warrants are questionable. The proper process is not being obeyed.
