MR FOURIE: These were person who had obtained military training abroad who had either joined MK or APLA.

ADV SANDI: Yes, but just tell me, what was the normal practice if you turn an MK or APLA cadre to work for you and leave his own organisation, would you not give him your own codename and not continue calling him by the same name he was using whilst in that liberation movement?

... used very effectively with regard to the identification of PAC and ANC members, because virtually the whole of Vlakplaas consisted of former MK or APLA members and we would be able to arrest these persons and recruit them, we would also be able to neutralise stockpiling locations by being able ...

MNR DE KOCK: "Nee, Voorsitter, dis toe 'n huis aangeval was van ANC lede, van APLA lede, waar daar ook 'n tweeling doodgeskiet is, mense van 'n baie jeugdige ouderdom. Op daai stadium, as my geheue my reg bedien, was oud President, mnr de Klerk, besig om die Nobel prys vir vrede te kry, in Oslo. ...

TRC to understand the PAC as to what had happened during the attacks of the Azanian People’s Liberation army, that it was not only because of PAC or APLA were blood thirsty warmongers, it was also because of what had happened in the past. As I’ve already indicated that we left the country, many ...

... targets changed, we have to focus on the SACP, then we have to focus on MK, then we are not allowed to go close to them, then we have to focus on APLA. There was also a problem with funding, we could not get hold of the funds that we were used ...

Having the circumstances of that time, not of what Mr Mlambo was speaking, trying to justify the killing of farmers in order to collect money for what he says. Where was Mr Mlambo in 1982 and 1984? Was there an APLA presence in South Africa at all at the time, Mr Chairman?

MR LAX: Did you only work on MK cases or did you work on PAC cases, APLA cases as well?

MR KHUMALO: I will repeat what I have stated before. Prior to 1988, this intention of the desire to go to Lusaka had been with me. I knew about MK, APLA and other organisations prior to 1988, it was something that I knew before this time. I even informed Mr Archie Gumede after my detention that ...

there were some other criminal activities which happened to be perpetuated by the very same system amongst our communities turning our MK cadres and APLA cadres into askaries and all those things. We happen to live in this era. The situation came to change not because of their wishful thinking ...

MR MAMASELA: I warned Dr Ribeiro, I warned the Commander of APLA, Tsoba, who was killed in Atteridgeville, and he never heeded my warnings, and they paid the ultimate penalty.

... will hear accounts of human rights violations right across the political spectrum. In East London we had people who were the victims of an alleged APLA atrocity. In East London we heard from victims of bombing in Highgate Hotel. In Cape Town we heard someone come to speak on behalf of a ...

MR FOURIE: Mr Chairperson, I was part of C2 who did research on MK and APLA members, we did have photo albums of refugees and we also had names of these people that we tried to identify, and I also had an interest in that and I knew that there were names of refugees in that office.

... And it’s very important for us in this country to understand what this is about. There is a perception that people like the applicants especially APLA cadres should not be granted amnesty, they must get their just deserts. Now I’m putting that in context, there’s been a lot of killing and the ...

MR FOURIE: Unit C2's function was the identification of terrorists by means of photographs and a photo album as well as the research of terrorism including APLA and MK.

... he should come to Zeerust or to Potchefstroom and talk to them because he is now creating a monster. He is going to allow PAC guys to infiltrate, APLA guys to infiltrate, because they will not be able to arrest every group that comes in. They would have to let one go, arrest others and they ...

... diligent planning and goodwill enabled the relatively painless process with which the six forces, joined shortly after the elections by APLA as the seventh, unified in the National Defence Force on the eve of the national democratic elections in April ...

MR DE KOCK: Chairperson, he would have been shot in the head, there is no doubt about that. As I've given evidence before, there were instances in which our members shot an MK or an Apla and even though you knew he was dead you'd still fire two extra shots to the head to make sure that he was dead.

... in my time I had questioned plus minus 50 of them and without exception I had reiterated the fact that infiltrating MK members as well as APLA members were very tense, that they would make maximum preparations for the smallest incident that might happen as to protect themselves seeing ...
