Nairobi, Mar:19.1
A subaltern in the King's African Rifles, 24- year-old Second Lieutenant David Irines Walker, testified today he had committed perjury before a court of inquiry on the orders of his superior officer Captain Gerald Selby Lewis Griffiths, who is accused of cruelty to Africans.

"I did it because I was told to by my superior officer," he told the court martial. "It was not to save my own skin. I had nothing to gain and everything to lose. It was to help ten of my men."
