Considering your use of the words "string up", it's safe to assume you misunderstood the situation entirely and believed Rufus was going to hang Manfred there and then, when in reality, Rufus was actually asking Geralt to restrain Manfred so he can find some rope to bind his hands - remember Rufus' intention being to bring Manfred back to an outpost? Rufus had no quarrels about bringing Manfred back dead rather than alive - "If needs must" - so why would he have turned it into an unnecessarily drawn-out lynching when, as a soldier againt a merchant/spy, he could've easily killed Manfred with his sword?
