The victory of a guerilla lies within the successful application of the revolution or the independence or as an entire team?

DR RANDERA: General, just one last question, and this, it relates to this issue of the only person who had knowledge of what was going on within the front companies was Dr Basson.

MR BELLINGHAN: Mr Chairman, I've been involved in various legal forums in the time since I left the South African Police. In respect of the Amnesty Committee, this is my fourth legal team. I've had changes for various reasons which I don't want to go into over here. It's entirely possible that ... All I want to know is that on occasions you will alternate driving, in that Mr Dube or Mr Mbane or yourself would drive a motor vehicle on a specific operation. You were not the only driver in that team, is that correct? CHAIRPERSON: Mr Coetser, just to help you out here.

The reason for that is because Mr Coetzee and I worked together for several years in Soweto and when he ... MR POWE: I am otherwise part of Mr Currin's team, so in that context I am involved in other matters. MR MOSIANE: That is correct Chairperson, the person who was our Team Leader in that particular vehicle which I worked with, was Sergeant Simon Radebe. |
