COUNSEL QUOTES EXPERT'S Claire Bloom In Shakespeare Film Japanese Captain Tells JOHN CLARKE'S
OPINION ON QUIE
'Not Certifiable As Insane In July 1952'
In the course of his address to the Jury this morning in the action for damages against three Government doctors, Mr John McNeill, QC, leading Counsel for plaintiff, said that plaintiff was not, in the opinion of Dr Stungo who amongst other doctors examined him in London, certißi- able as insane in July, 1952.
Mr McNeill further stated that if the diagnosis of plaintiff in Hongkong was alcoholic dementia, in Dr Stungo's opinion, having seen plaintiff, that diagnosis could not be sustained.
