On Australia Day 1990, a seventy-three-year-old man was plucked from the Adelaide suburbs and accused of helping massacre nearly nine hundred men, women and children in Nazi-occupied Ukraine.
The trial of Ivan Polyukhovich stretched across the world as witnesses gathered to testify from Ukraine, Israel and North America. Australian investigators, lawyers, magistrates and judges had to deal with memories half a century old, and the customs and language of an isolated Soviet village that knew nothing of western criminal justice.
A Case to Answer is compelling courtroom drama. David Bevan describes the events that led to Polyukhovich’s arrest, his near fatal shooting, and the extraordinary manoeuvrings as Australia’s legal system is tested to the limit.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: From 1988 to 1993 David Bevan was a court reporter for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the Adelaide Advertiser. After that he covered South Australian politics for ABC Radio and Television News before joining ABC local radio. Since 2001 he has hosted the ABC's Morning and Breakfast programs with Philip Satchell, Matthew Abraham and currently Ali Clarke. Before all this, he studied history, politics and English literature at Adelaide University and journalism at the South Australian College of Advance Education. He lives in Adelaide with his long-suffering wife Janette and their two children Joshua and Ashleigh.
