The tribunal's rules of procedure and evidence include provisos for the protection of witnesses from allowing their face and voice to be distorted to speaking on conditions of complete anonymity, with the identity of the witness not revealed to the defence.

So, an un-identified individual gets to present any story they want as "evidence" in complete anonymity that the defendant then has to counter. Tell me again, how is this trial is legal???

"...the face of the witness will not be visible and the voice will be distorted to avoid recognition."

It sounds like that Larson cartoon where the cleaner accidentally switches on the lights.
