Standing in front of the court, Hans denied ever threatening anyone, and equally denied any knowledge of witchcraft; but there were five witnesses confirm, that they had heard him to promise to go to a witch.
Kohtu ees olles väitis Otsa Hans, et ta ei ole kunagi ähvardanud kedagi ära nõiduda ega tea ka nõidusest mitte midagi, kuid koguni viis tunnistajad kinnitavad, et nad on kuulnud teda lubavat nõia juurde minna.
