In the Matlala trial, a paramedic testifies that, hours after his arrest, Musa Kekana told him that police had assaulted him, the Johannesburg High Court hears. The testimony is presented as part of the evidence considered by the court.

The reports describe Kekana’s account as relayed shortly after his detention, placing the alleged assault in the immediate aftermath of his arrest. The outlets focus on the timing of the statement to medical personnel rather than the details of any injuries or the response by investigators.

With only limited information provided here, other specifics—such as what the paramedic observed medically, what police allege, or how the court is weighing the claim—are not included in the cited summary. The testimony nonetheless centers on whether Kekana’s claim of mistreatment is credible and how it fits within the broader trial proceedings.
