The claimant challenged his imprisonment under the 1966 Act for non-co-operation as a prosecution witness. He had shown fear of the defendants and repeatedly failed to attend court or to be co-operative. He had completed his evidence, and the defendants had declined to ask him any questions. The judge had remanded him in custody against the possibility that he might be recalled.
