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? 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 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 MORRIS: Yes. He then accused me again of playing for a team which he doesn't like. MR NORTJE: Yes, they would be the team to execute the elimination. 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 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." MR HATTINGH: You also made a statement to the Attorney-General and his investigating team, is that correct? 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 ... MR CLOETE: I would have been interested but like I said, Capt Opperman spoke to the team leader about what had happened and they thought they shot Victor Ntuli. MR MBANDAZAYA: And you were playing rugby in Butterworth, is not that so, a team there in Butterworth, you were playing local team? I still remember you. 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 SONTI: It is rare that as a member of the Kaizer Chiefs my child would favour another team. I don’t know how he was killed as I was not there. CHAIRPERSON: Thank you Chris. I just want to say at this stage that when the idea of bringing on journalists evolved, we then ateamed, the team that was planning for this hearing, I consulted with a few journalists, I think it was about six journalists from whom I asked their opinion of whom we ... 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? During September 1996 Loots was contacted by Van Vuuren who told him that it was alleged by the Attorney-General's investigating team that Motasi was killed because he had instituted a civil claim against the Minister of police. He never before this had heard of such a civil claim. He does not ... 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"? |
