TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION COMMISSION
AMNESTY COMMITTEE
APPLICATION IN TERMS OF SECTION 18 OF THE PROMOTION OF NATIONAL UNITY AND RECONCILIATION ACT, NO. 34 OF 1995.
NKOSINATHI MICHAEL SIYOLO APPLICANT
(AM 6139/96)
DECISION
The applicant, Nkosinathi Michael Siyolo is asking for amnesty for harbouring Apla cadres during the late 1980's and early 1990's.
It was indeed an offence during the period mentioned to harbour or assist members or supporters of the Apla or the PAC as they were prohibited organisations in terms of the Security Acts.
His acts were clearly politically motivated, his application complies with the requirements of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, No 34 of 1995, and AMNESTY IS ACCORDINGLY GRANTED.
SIGNED ON THE 16th DAY OF JULY 1997 IN CAPE TOWN.
