What prevented Vane from preparing a defence?
Illness
Denied counsel
Lack of evidence
He fled
Answer
**Denied counsel**, Vane was deprived of his fundamental right to legal representation and the opportunity to effectively defend himself against the charges. This denied him the chance to present exculpatory evidence, challenge witnesses, and advocate for his innocence, severely impairing his ability to mount a robust defence and secure a fair trial.
