MR MATHEBULA: He was present in that interrogation team, but I don't as to whether he took part. DR RAMASHALA: Exactly when was this team, which was supposed to carry out this operation, exactly when were they briefed? MR RICHARDSON: I liked her because she was a girlfriend of Buthile who was also a soccer player in my team. Mr de Kock, you will recall that Mr McPherson drove the getaway car or he was at least part of the getaway team, along with Jimmy Taylor? MR SIBEKO: And as part of the team, part of your team, Xolani was also instructed, given the same instructions that he's got to go along with you to try to get these drivers back into Polla Park?

CROSS-EXAMINATION BY MR HUGO: Yes, thank you Mr Chairman. Colonel Willy, who was the Head of this Investigation Team that was tasked to bring the culprits to book and to take them to court? MR MATTHEWS: You would have to ask my legal team about that. I cannot answer that question. I have been in prison, I do not have free access to him and I cannot see him when I want to. and his team as well, they viewed them as well, so it is no secret "Nature and particulars: I was a member of a team consisting of Defence Force and Security Police members who apprehended a group of 10 ANC MK activists while they were on their way to Botswana in a kombi for further training." MR CORNELIUS: Did you believe that evening when you waited with your team at the scene of the ambush, that the robbers would indeed be heavily armed? After the shooting all the members of the team entered the house, grabbed documents and weapons which they found in the house and vacated the premises as soon as they could. They drove to the border and left Swaziland by crossing the fence illegally. They did not make use of the border posts. MR BOOYENS: On page or paragraph 28 you deal with the situation on the ground and, perhaps, just for sake of completeness, there is a little bit more detail here. That morning, very, very early, before it was light, this police task team moved in? "De Kock and his team joined us in the planning of the operation. I cannot recall de Kock's team's names, but there were a few askaris." |
