Biography 📅 1 November 1963 📍 South Africa

Justice Quartus de Wet refused bail to Lionel “Rusty” Bernstein and James Kantor. The decision concerned those two accused, not Mandela personally. Their continuing detention illustrates the unequal burdens of a trial that involved multiple defendants with distinct circumstances and legal representation.
