			<text>According to the applicant, the deceased Mfanafuthi  Mbokazi, with six other IFP supporters attacked the house where he and Isaac Msomi were staying on 1st January 1992.  The house belonged to a Mr Myeni who had fled the area because he feared for his life during the ongoing fighting between members of the ANC and the IFP.  He said he knew the attackers and they were, according to him, former ANC  members who defected from the party and later joined the IFP.  He knew the deceased as a person who had been involved in killing ANC members since 1989. It is common cause that the deceased was 21 years old when he died in 1992.</text>
