Firstly, it was on the 2nd December 1989. After the march one of our comrades whose name is Fikile Philip was run over by a police van in town, in Lusikisiki. This is the first incident.

CHAIRPERSON: Isn't it fairly clear though, or I would have thought it was, that his comrades would have known of his disappearance and would have assumed that he'd been eliminated by the police or the intelligence organisations, security organisations?

... I was sent to this particular group there was a prisoner held at the police station cells who I was given instructions to get some names of his comrades and I slept with him in the cell and the following day I had to tell him that my lawyer was there to release ...

MR KHUMALO: It so happened that when we came back from exile in 1992, it was the 3rd of April. When we arrived at our homes, we dropped our things and we left to look for other comrades around the township because it has been a long time since we saw them.

MR ZUNGU: I just knew him as any other comrades at school when we meet.
