A-Team (OFS)Explanation Showing 261 to 280 of 843 First Page•Previous Page 10 •11 •12 •13 •14 •15 •16 •17 •18 Next Page•Last PageMay I also bring the apology of Professor Magwaza, who was supposed to be with us here. We are supposed to be a team of four, and because of the work in the office we had to excuse Professor Magwaza to attend some of the assignments in the office so that we could come here ourselves. And I need to say that we do not and cannot address you fully on what took place in the programme because we do not know. That is for you to decide. Nor can we address you fully on what are the issues that are going to come before you. Nor what matters will be the subject of cross-examination by ... MR VERMEULEN: The team that moved out with us, Mr Chairperson. Mr van Heerden, you've applied for amnesty and you've given your full co-operation to the investigative team of the TRC. The Soviet must be stopped in Southern Africa. We need your help as a team to stand up against the evil MR VISSER: Ms Miller, I am not going to argue about that, we were not, we are not an investigation team with access to these things, you are. "I gave these hand grenades to Eugene de Kock and his team" MR HATTINGH: And later, when you made the other statement, was it a statement which you made to the Attorney-General's Investigative Team? Botha testified that he and his colleagues were told by De Kock to get themselves ready for a cross-border operation in Swaziland. He told them that they were going to ambush "ANC terrorists" who were about to infiltrate the country. The aim of the ambush was to stop them from doing so. ... MR LE ROUX: Yes Chairperson, we redeployed ourselves with some adaptations. We wanted to cover a larger area as to when the vehicle would stop that we could be able to see it. The vehicle arrived, it stopped, it killed the headlights, we started moving closer. I specifically was behind a wire ... MR MANANA: Well yes, I am opposing the application of the two applicants, because what they have advanced to this Commission is not true, rather the evidence that they have advanced to this Commission is not true. And again, they are my children as well. They were growing in front of me and they ... First Applicant was stationed at the Security Branch at Northern Transvaal as part of a specially selected team to investigate "unrest crimes." HE shared an office with Lieut Hechter as this team worked closely with the Security Police. He was told that a petrol station in KwaNdebele must ... MR POTGIETER: I cannot say right now that I knew it but I'm assuming this, that he as a member of the investigating component, which formed a part of the team, would have had this as his task or his duty. However, I must say that Mr du Toit's statement is that he spent a brief time at the security ... So therefore Mr Nortje, the conclusion is that Gen Engelbrecht says he, just like other people, was misled by your team at Vlakplaas as to the true facts. This is the first time as it were, in a session of this kind I wanted to express congratulations to Max du Preez's team, TV team, and Antjie Samuels radio team on winning the Pringle Awards - richly deserved accolades. ADV LAMEY: My apologies Mr Koole. I briefly would like to make a couple of statements to you which comes from a statement made by Mr Mamasela - he made this on a previous occasion to the Investigating Team of the Truth Commission, and more specifically I’d like to refer you to the crux of his ... MR VISSER: Chairperson, we would have to speculate, we don't know where he was from, we believe it was the so-called D'Oliviera team, but I don't want to ... But the point is that this conversation took place at, apparently, at CR Swart Square, but even that may be wrong. I don't want to limit it ... the attacker, they had a team. "Mr Chairman I have already testified before the Amnesty Committee and before the investigation team and I have confirmed that certain instructions were given with the approval of the Minister..." MR MARAIS: Mr Chairman, I really only began to become interested in politics in 1980 while I was at university in Bloemfontein. That year there was a general election, and we as students were recruited to help with this election. Former Minister Kobie Coetzee stood there for the National Party ... |
