... of credibility, but I don't understand why somebody would say, 'well listen I think I went to a cafe, I took out a loaf of bread to go and feed the comrades who were starving in the bush. Some people think I stole that bread, but as far as I'm concerned I paid for that at the till but there's an ...

MR RADEBE: I'm speaking about lawyers who were helping the comrades who did not have money, to have legal representatives.

... it was just hanging over together with a bullet. Fortunately it did not fall off, it just hung on my face. I tried to put my jawbone back. The comrades then realised that I had been injured. It was obvious. It was a distance of about ten metres, somebody else got shot and fell over. ...

went there as a family. We were going to visit him as usual. Pres Mandela was also present on the day of the celebration and some of the other comrades were also there. When we went back home, he was about to be released, because out of the 15 years I think, he spent only three years. When his ...

... Mr Snoek, its really very simple. You had to operate according to orders. You got specific orders. What would happen to you? What would your Comrades do to you? What would your Commanders do to you, if you did other things beside what you had been ordered to do? That’s really the question. ...

... he said no, I think I'll wait for a few friends of mine to arrive. Yes duly they all arrived. Both girls and boys came because they were all comrades and they prepared food before they could leave and after eating you know they decided to walk to Zone 7 because I was staying in HRV/820 ...

DR RANDERA: I want to come back to this incident about the principal and the school. It seems like the youth or the comrades actually targeted schools at that time. Is that right?

MR LAMEY: Can you recall whether there was an interrogation with regard to the identities of these other comrades and with regard to the weapon caches?

He said that not one of his comrades from Botswana had come to him at any time, since the explosion to surmise that perhaps their letter had been intercepted and used to convey the bomb. Let me concede Mr Chairman, at the outset, that there is of course another possibility that if anybody did ...

CHAIRPERSON: Did you not find out from your comrades what this was all about, what is this Kangaroo Court that the newspapers are referring to?

... Four wanted training in order to kill Warrant Officer Nkosi and Mr Musi testified that he requested Mfalapitsa to organise for them, him and his comrades, to go into exile and again the other aspect which really doesn't form common cause is the question of the existence of a sketch. Musi ...

MR MOTHIBE: I went to Shell House together with some comrades, we were five in number. When we arrived at Shell House, we were supposed to inform Zakes, but we did not find him there. We found Jackie Selebe, now the Commissioner of the Police and we informed Jackie about the situation. Comrade ...
