Former Ford SA CEO Jeff Nemeth told a police witness to change his statement to include details which could make a deadly Ford Kuga fire look like foul play.

This was the testimony of Andrew Roberts in the High Court in Cape Town on Monday. Roberts told Judge Robert Henney that Nemeth called him and told him to contact Weber & Wentzel Attorneys to include details of evidence which were absent from the statement he initially gave to the police investigating the fire.
