On chapter 28 What sentence does the judge pass on the other two accused men?

The judge issues his verdict in the case. He states that Absalom has not sought to deny his guilt, and that there is no conclusive proof that Matthew Kumalo and Johannes Pafuri were present at the time, despite Mpiring's identification of Pafuri. The judge concludes that the guilt of Matthew Kumalo and Pafuri has not been established thus they are not punished.
