Type AMNESTY DECISIONS Names MBULELO DAVID YELANE Matter AM 5919/97 Decision GRANTED
DECISION
This application for amnesty is linked to that of Ben Sepato Lehloo (AM 3360/96) inasmuch as both applicants seek amnesty in respect of the same incident, namely Public Violence committed on 8 August 1993 at Phatisma, Rustenburg. The house of Mr Jimmy Deswaye as well as the car of Mr George Matuse were attacked and damaged in the incident.
Amnesty was granted to Mr Lehloo for the reasons set out in the Committee's decision dated 2 October 1998. We are in agreement with that decision and are similarly satisfied that the incident constitutes an act associated with a political objective as envisaged in Section 20 of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act No. 34 of 1995.
Amnesty is accordingly GRANTED to Applicant in respect of Public Violence committed at Phatisma, Rustenburg on 8 August 1993.
