Their were loud buzzing noises in the court as people whispered to each other, as the manager of the hotel entered the court room.
Austin held up a card and gave it to magistrate. "Here is the hotel id card of my eye witness! Also, I would request Miss Elly to herself confirm, if he is the same manager she called up for help."
Elly nodded in a 'yes', looking at the lanky manager.
"Very well! Mr. Koovs! Can you please truthfully tell the court what exactly happened?" Austin glared at the manager with dangerous eyes.
The manager gulped and looked at the magistrate. "Your honour this audio is completely true, their is no denial in that!"
Everybody gaped at the manager in surprise. Austin's team too looked at the man in horror! "Is he not on our side?"
"But...." The man continued. "Your honour when I reached to the room and opened it with an emergency key, I say the couple in a compromising state! I was utterly confused. Infact Mr. Ashley, shouted at me! I tried to explain him, that I recieved an emergency call from the room, but he did not believe me!"
Elly gaped at the manager in surprise, again on the verge of crying. Linda patted the girl's back, consolling her.
Austin smirked looking at the manager and walked ahead again. "So as you see your honour, Miss Elly wanted to keep a record of a phone call, so that it can be later produced as an evidence. Not once in her imagination, she would have thought that I could have summoned the manager himself, from Maldives to all the way to Singapore!"
