11.30AM LATEST: A Gympie woman has recalled witnessing "violent" and "fast" movements in the back of a blue sedan as she drove on the Nambour Connection Road.

Belinda Russell told the court she was driving with her husband and two children on December 7, 2003.

She said she saw a man in the back seat of a blue sedan her punching downwards into the car's cabin.

"It was continual, violent and quite fast," she said.

Mrs Russell said she saw arms and a shoe come up "in a defensive action", trying to kick the person away

She said the driver did not seem to be disturbed about what was going on in the back.

Mrs Russell said the struggle stopped quite abruptly before the car turned into a side street.

Mrs Russell said she looked in the car for a pen.

But when she tried to write down the number plate of the car where the struggle occurred, the pen wouldn't work.

Mrs Russell said she imprinted the number plate details on a shopping docket but at the end of the day she threw it away.

The committal hearing has been adjourned for the day.

The court heard the final two witnesses would give evidence on Thursday.

The committal hearing will then be adjourned until February.
