to buy some eggs, and when she rolurned, the robbers had entered, and they drove her, her diughter and mother into the rear cubicle,
whilst the first defendant kept gunrd outside the room. She was too frightened to shout out for a mall help. But she beckoned who was standing on the ground out "Do floor, and he shouted you want the doctor?" She made another beckoning motion and the man, who was a cook, called back "Is it a serious casc?". She nod ded with her head and shortly afterwards the doctor came in and was immediately caught by the robbers. She heard the doctor shout "What's the matter."
The woman added that she look ed out through the curtain and saw the doctor, but later she re- Tuted this and stated that she did not see him.
