WESTERN Dape Director of Public Prosecutions Frank Kahn has referred a docket in which Foreign Affairs official Robert McBride is charged with being an accessory in an assault case, back to the police for further investigation. McBride and a friend are being accused of assaulting a woman at an escort agency in Cape Town. According to witnesses, McBride did not take part in the assault, but the police regard him as an accessory. McBride will only face disciplinary action from Foreign Affairs once charges are eventually laid against him.
