Chikane says it was clear to him that Aggett had seen the worst as he watched him being escorted back to his cell.“I saw him coming with the police, struggling to walk. He was bending forward, almost like he was not able to pick his body and he was struggling to walk. He was slow, almost like a patient who was being assisted to get to his cell, and looked very distressed, and that was the last time I saw him.
