THE PRESIDENT: Dr. Laternser, you knew, directly this witness began his evidence, what his position was; and you, therefore, could have cross-examined him yourself at the proper time. You are now re-examining; you are only entitled—because we cannot have the time of the Court wasted—you are only entitled to ask him questions which arise out of the cross-examination. In the opinion of the Tribunal this question does not arise out of the cross-examination.
DR. LATERNSER: Mr. President, please, would you, as an exception, admit this question?
THE PRESIDENT: No, Dr. Laternser, the Tribunal has given you a great latitude and we cannot continue to do so.
The Tribunal will now adjourn.
[The Tribunal recessed until 1400 hours.]
Afternoon Session
THE PRESIDENT: You have finished, have you not, Dr. Kranzbühler, with this witness?
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: Yes.
THE PRESIDENT: The witness can retire.
