Hello. We cover the whole spectrum of the Truth Commission process in today’s Special Report: brutality, forgiveness and justice. We focus on two assassinations today, David Webster and Anton Lubowski, and not surprisingly the same characters appear in both dramas. We also look at what that old ... Many of the attacks launched beyond our borders targeted individuals and apartheid’s assassins even travelled as far as Europe to take out opponents. The April 1980 attempt on the life of Michael Lapsley was the last time the embattled nationalist government used the strategy of cross-border ...

We want to live in peace with the other people of this nation. We want to create a future for our children and our grandchildren. We are particularly outraged at her obvious complicity in the recent abductions and assault on young people like Stompie. We believe that had Stompie and his three colleagues not been abducted by Mrs. Mandela’s Football Team, he would have been alive today. The Mass Democratic Movement at this ...

He stands by the policemen and soldiers who killed people in the name of the previous government. So he makes no apology.
