A-Team (Chesterville, Durban)Explanation Showing 421 to 440 of 843 First Page•Previous Page 18 •19 •20 •21 •22 •23 •24 •25 •26 Next Page•Last PageMR 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? MR VAN DER MERWE: Can you confirm for me that he was not part of the interrogation team? MS KHAMPEPE: Mr Maxam, what was an A-team? In some of your documents you have referred us to a unit called the A-team. MR MORRIS: Yes. He then accused me again of playing for a team which he doesn't like. The Applicant had accompanied some members of Colonel Eugene de Kock's team to Lesotho. He was merely an observer of the operation and took no active part in the incidents. There was an exchange of fire between other members of de Kock's team and some ANC members. It transpired that three ... MR NORTJE: Yes, they would be the team to execute the elimination. MR DE KOCK: Chairperson, I personally, and it's my personal opinion, did not like Mr Mamasela, he usually followed his own head. He was not a person who could work in a team, he was not a team-worker. That is how I experienced him. At times he was mean with specifically the askaris, but he got ... MR DU PLESSIS: You will agree with me that Mr Beeslaar was not part of the interrogation team. MR CORNELIUS: And was the necessary information conveyed to Col de Kock and his team? "Foreign Affairs referred to the success that was accomplished in the recent past in the Lesotho matter by a small high-profile or high level project team by RSA officials." ADV GCABASHE: Within your Section, Mandela Section, how many members were there in your team, in the SDU that you controlled? MR BRACHER: But you asking other people to go out and plant bombs, wouldn't you expect the leadership to say: "We have already had a success. You are one of a great team here"? MR SCHOON: They were members of the investigative team of which I was the head at that stage. The latter mentioned persons later reported that two terrorists had been confronted near Zeerust and that one had been shot dead and the other captured. They brought the arrestee with to Pretoria. MR CORNELIUS: Yes. But I think that clears the situation up. This is purely I understand from my instructions, after the Attorney-General's Special Investigations Team, alleged that he was kidnapped, that this application was drawn by my client. I will leave it at that for what it is worth, Mr ... MS GROBBELAAR: My name is Janice Grobbelaar and I'm the Information Manager in this office and I'm not a psychologist I'm a sociologist so that might be a problem. I would like to address broadly, the issue Augustine has put to us about him coming to the Commission and him being told that the ... MR SIBANYONI: The impression I’ve got when I read the applicants is that they surprised the occupants of the house. But when one reads the report apparently coming from Lawrence, is that he was working in conjunction with the team. How did you understand the operation? How was it conducted? MR KOTZE: My recollection of the surveillance is that I remained on the ground floor and since we were a very small team, I never moved very far from the, if I remember correctly, the set of glass doors on the eastern side of the building. We left it to Mr de Kock to go in deeper and survey the ... MR HATTINGH: You also made a statement to the Attorney-General and his investigating team, is that correct? ADV BOSMAN: Were you present at the meeting on the 3rd of January where the decision was taken that the members of the team and the supporters of the team should be attacked when you came across them? MS PATEL: Part of the tasks then that you would have assigned to the Investigative Team in Cradock, would also then have been who assisted the person who has applied for asylum, not so? |
