A-Team (Chesterville, Durban)

Explanation
The Chesterville A-Team, a state-sponsored vigilante group composed of Inkatha supporters, was set up by the Security Branch in 1985 in Chesterville, Durban, to counter the activities of the UDF, COSAS and other civic organisations in the area. Political tensions between UDF supporters and members of the Chesterville A-Team frequently resulted in attacks against UDF and ANC supporters.

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 HATTINGH: You also made a statement to the Attorney-General and his investigating team, is that correct?

And therefore you gave up or the case was dismissed already. In your statement you said that you plead with the Truth Commission it must go further with this investigation. You are not happy. You want the truth to be revealed and you don’t like the manner in which your case was handled. We will ...
When we came out of the gate van der Berg who was in charge at that time would take the team out with our shoes. He beat me again on my face and I fell down but I got up again and followed the others. All day I was not able to really understand what was going on I was simply observing as I was ...

Snyman testified that hew as suffering from a bad memory due to a post-traumatic stress disorder and that he could not as a matter of certainty say that he was the one from whom de Kock requested the limpet mine.

As far as the other two applicants are concerned that I represent, which is Mr Bellingan and Mr Tait, I would submit that they were, to you Mr Chairperson, that Mr Bellingan was part of the logistics component of this operation. The evidence is clear that he never entered the building, he ...
