Special Report Transcript Episode 57, Section 4, Time 21:24

Last week we reported on the APLA attack on the St. James Church in Cape Town in 1993. We introduced you to the three APLA men who carried out the brutal attack and now want amnesty. And you met the victims and survivors inside the church; you met Liezl Ackerman whose mother was killed in the church who said on last week’s programme that she wondered how the attackers themselves felt. This past week we took Liezl Ackerman and Gillian Schermbrucker who was badly wounded in the attack to Pollsmoor Prison to meet one of the killers, Gcinikhaya Makoma.
