MR R KASRILS: The Transkei certainly provided sanctuary for both ANC, MK, PAC, APLA people, particularly in the period where a military council operated, pre-'90 and then obviously post-'90 a lot of our people were there, and at some stage Chris Hani was there, if you remember, when his indemnity ...

... on the same side of the road and ordered them "to attack cars whose occupants were white" in accordance with what he stated was the policy of APLA, the military structure of the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC).  According to this policy, whites, whoever they might be, were ...

The fact that both MK and eventually the Azanian People's LiberationArmy, APLA, members started using neighbouring frontline statesas a springboard for launching their armed attacks against theRepublic led directly to the 3A establishment/...

There can be no doubt that the applicants were cadres of APLA. Their actions as set out above fell within the ambit of the policy of APLA and the PAC. We may mention that the Commission has had extensive evidence and received submissions detailing such policy and strategies.

National Integrated Stability Strategy on an on-going basis and we are awaiting new legislation which will enable us to include all the ex-MK and ex-APLA members also in the programme. In this regard General Masuko has already embarked on a programme of identifying and tracing those members of ...

It is common cause that 1993 was declared the "Year of the Great Storm" by APLA.

... for the Security Police, they were there to combat this very type of people, members of the ANC, so he fits in exactly, or the PAC or in this case, APLA in all probability, so it fits in exactly for why he is there and for that reason it is clear that Tait's, what he did, what he gets involved ...

MR MEMANI: And besides collating evidence and passing it on to the various people who would have use for it, you made visits to houses of people who had skipped the country to join MK and APLA.

... this was one of the vehicles which I had already begun to collect for actions in the Transkei and particularly in the Sterkspruit vicinity, where APLA members regularly shot vehicles off the road, vehicles that were in transit to the Transkei. This vehicle I had obtained from a person that I ...

... what it means is that it's nota bunch of ex-soldiers getting together having a braaivleis andswopping bush stories. What it is, is SWAPO, ANC, APLA, UhmkontoweSizwe, Koevoet, Rekkies, all the units every single unit everybodywho ever was trained in any way militarily getting together andjust ...

MR BURGER: But the PAC, APLA, ANC, UDF, Umkhonto weSizwe, etc, they were the enemies of the Republic of South Africa.
