Crown Consul: Swear him in.Karanja - Father of Kimani: Which god, please?Crown Consul: The Christian God.Karanja - Father of Kimani: I worship Ngai, the god who lives on Mount Kenya. I will swear by our sacred Githathi stone.Crown Consul: Your word will suffice.Karanja - Father of Kimani: Oh, no, no. If I lie before this symbol of God... my children and their children and my home and my land will turn to dust. And when I die... I will have no life hereafter except to live forever in eternity... by the cursed hyena, cowardly eater of the dead. i speak the truth.Crown Consul: You're the father of the dead baby in question?Karanja - Father of Kimani: Yes.Crown Consul: Did you tell the midwife to kill the baby?Karanja - Father of Kimani: Yes. It was born feet first, it was cursed.Crown Consul: Then what was done?Karanja - Father of Kimani: What is always done according to custom.Crown Consul: Tell His Honor what that is.Karanja - Father of Kimani: We smothered the child and buried it under a pot.Crown Consul: You know that killing is against the law?Karanja - Father of Kimani: God says to murder is wrong.Crown Consul: And when you had that newborn baby smothered, was that not murder?Karanja - Father of Kimani: No. A child cannot join the tribe until he is 1 year old. Therefore, he's not really born until his second year. What was killed was a demon, not a child.Crown Consul: And then what did you do?Karanja - Father of Kimani: We sacrificed a young ram.Crown Consul: Mm. And that , I suppose, got rid of the curse.Karanja - Father of Kimani: No, no sir. Not yet. I am still here, therefore the curse is still at work.Crown Consul: Would you do the same thing if another child were born to you feet first?Karanja - Father of Kimani: [very slowly looks around at everyone] Yes... yes... It would be my duty.
