Hi,
When cross-examining a witness in a domestic inquiry regarding charges of misbehaving, assault, and indecent behavior with higher management, your questions should aim to achieve the following objectives:

Clarify the facts - Obtain specific details about the incident.
Test credibility - Determine if the witness's account is reliable and consistent.
Expose biases - Reveal any potential biases the witness might have.
Identify inconsistencies - Highlight any contradictions in the witness's testimony.
Here are some sample questions you might consider:

General Questions
Background and Relationship

Can you state your name and position within the company?
How long have you been employed here?
What is your relationship with the accused employees?
Witness Credibility

Were you present during the incident in question?
Have you had any previous conflicts with the accused employees?
Are you aware of any reason why the accused employees might hold a grudge against you or anyone else in management?
Specific Incident Questions
Details of the Incident

Can you describe the incident in detail?
What exactly did the accused say or do?
At what time did the incident occur?
Where exactly did the incident take place?
Were there any other witnesses present? If so, who were they?
Behavior and Actions

What were you doing immediately before the incident occurred?
How did the accused behave immediately before and after the alleged incident?
Did the accused say anything specific that you remember?
Evidence and Reports

Did you report the incident immediately? If not, why?
Have you documented the incident in any way (emails, written reports, etc.)?
Is there any physical evidence (e.g., video footage) that supports your account of the incident?
Cross-Examination Techniques
Consistency and Details

You mentioned earlier that the incident occurred at [specific time]. Can you explain what happened immediately before and after this time?
Have you ever contradicted yourself in your statements about this incident?
Bias and Motive

Do you have any personal disagreements with the accused that might influence your testimony?
Have you discussed this incident with anyone else before the inquiry? What did you say?
Reliability and Memory

How clearly can you recall the events of the incident?
Are you certain about the specific words and actions of the accused, or is there a possibility of misunderstanding or misinterpretation?
Closing Questions
Summary and Confirmation

Is there anything you would like to add that you believe is relevant to this case?
Are you aware of any other incidents involving the accused that might support or contradict your testimony?
Review of Evidence

Can you confirm the accuracy of any documents or evidence presented that support your version of events?
These questions are a starting point and should be tailored to the specifics of the case and the witness's testimony. Always listen carefully to the witness's answers and be prepared to ask follow-up questions to clarify any ambiguities or inconsistencies.
