decisions AMNESTY DECISIONS SIBUSISO RICHARD ("SOSHA") MBHELE AM4018/96 REFUSED https://sabctrc.saha.org.za/hearing.php?id=59445&t=&tab=hearings https://sabctrc.saha.org.za/originals/decisions/2001/ac21163.htm DECISION This is an application in terms of Section 18 of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, No. 34 of 1995 ("the Act"). Mbhele and his counsel conceded that the additional incidents also mentioned in the affidavit either did not amount to acts, omissions or offences for which amnesty could be sought or were acts, omissions or offences committed without a political objective. We now deal with each incident and the evidence relating thereto: This then was the evidence in respect of the various incidents. With regard to the role of Bheki Mkhize, we do not find it necessary to make a finding as to whether he was in fact the Applicant's commander as alleged by him. In the light of the unsatisfactory nature of Mbhele's evidence we are not in a position to decide whether any of the incidents in respect of which he applied for amnesty are in fact gross violations of human rights as defined in the Act and accordingly we are unable to make any victim referrals.
