DECISION
______________________________________________________
(a) Causing explosive devices to explode at the undermentioned
All the facts for which the Applicants now seek amnesty featured in this case and the following Applicants were accused:
As we have said, all the acts for which the Applicants seek amnesty featured in the Buthelezi trial, although the explosions at Game and Checkers on the 27th September 1985 were not the subject of charge but evidence was led about them.
The Committee was given a list of incidents in chronological order, they accord largely with the list set out above but we think it convenient to set out this list as well as it was used during evidence and in the course of argument.
None of the present Applicants were involved in Incidents 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
We are accordingly of the view that the Applicants have met all the requirements of the Act, in particular those set out in Section 20(1), 20(2)(a) and having regard to the requirements of Section 20(3).
We accordingly GRANT amnesty to the Applicants as set out below and for any act, omission or offence flowing from these acts:
V Ramlakan in respect of:
Derek Naidoo in respect of:
Dhanpal Naidoo in respect of:
Jude Francis in respect of:
David Madurai in respect of:
Richard Vallihu in respect of:
Sibongiseni Dhlomo in respect of:
Sibusiso Mbongwa in respect of:
Qonda Msomi in respect of:
This constituted a contravention of Section 54(1) (ii) and (iii) of the said Act.
This act was in contravention of Section 54(1) (ii) and (iii) of the said Act.
In incidents 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 no injuries were established.
In Incident 6 seven people were injured, their identities are unknown and none of the Applicant have applied for amnesty in respect of this incident.
In incident 14 those injured were the Nair family, Narain Nair, Audrey Nair, Rajendran Nair, Gregory Naidoo, Dawn Dudley Loots and Anthony Dexter van Heerden.
In incident 15 the victims were Ina de Jong and her two daughters.
The Committee is of the opinion that the relatives and dependants set out above are victims and they are referred in terms of Section 22(2) to the Committee on Reparation and Rehabilitation for consideration in terms of Section 26 of Act 34 of 1995.
