MR MATHEBULA: He was present in that interrogation team, but I don't as to whether he took part.

This operation, carried out thousands of kilometres from the front line and in clear violation of international law, was authorised by a formation Commissioner of Police and member of the State Security ... On my far left, which I assume is appropriate and wearing a tie for the first time for many months, Mr Ilan Lax, who is from Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu/Natal, he is an attorney by profession.

MR KHOTLE: In many cases, particularly in my military training, they said each and every comrade should be, I should trust him only 90%, I should reserve the 20%(???). Those are the aspects of my training, that is why that if it happens that we should have a disturbance, or the compromise of the ...

"The Intelligence group expanded over the last four years from a section of five with two sources, to the large groups as indicated above.
