Chair


Explanation:
I understand that is a hearing in a justice room. The "Vors" I think it is the person who is questioning the witness about his knoledges from two men in any trouble in bussines. It can be the Chair, the Presidente of Court or other position. Depends from the level where is occurring the hearing.
