Inkatha

When I was still lying down this Inkatha van came around and they took me and kicked me. While I was still unconscious and bleeding and crying they threw me into the van. While I was still in the van they drove around up to a shop, where another gentleman came around by the name of Makobe who ...

there was a conflict between the taxi owners. You heard his evidence and his evidence is, that there was ongoing conflict between the supporters of Inkatha on the one hand and the supporters of the ANC on the other hand. That is what he is saying. He didn’t say that there was a dispute between ...

MR GUMEDE: I didn’t see him at that time, but when I threw the gun there, I think most people who were there at that taxi rank, they were Inkatha people and they saw me, but then they couldn’t tell the police. They saw me as I was walking towards the police car, since we were in one organization, ...

After the funeral I decided that I cannot stay there, I had to look for a place to stay. The Inkatha members came and occupied my house. Even when I wanted to come back, I couldn't, because the Inkatha members refused to leave my house. Even when I wanted to sell my house, people were ...

... were barricaded and they were unable to come back that way and had to take Khumalo Street. When they were in the middle of that street a group of Inkatha men accosted them, stopped them and took out guns and they said they should drive into the hostel. The van which they were driving was forced ...

"I also hit some other people of Inkatha, with a home-made panga. They were hurt. One's surname was Ngema."

... back to the people who forced us to leave our area, or our places. We wanted to stay there as ANC members, freely, and also we wanted to kick out Inkatha members because they were the reason why we were out of our places. We were born there and it was sad and difficult for us to leave our ...

During this time there was conflict between the ANC supporters on the one hand and the security forces and the Inkatha Freedom Party on the other. The occupants of Ethafeni Hostel were under constant attack by the members of the IFP. It is against this background that the members organised ...

MR MIYA: Because he was a member of Inkatha and he was a hostel dweller but at the same time he had a shack within our own residential area. On that particular day he had come to pick up his belongings.

MR MALAN: The Volkstaat is an old ideal that comes from the time the AWB was founded, several times before that. Let's try and put it differently, if things - you know who Inkatha is?

MR FALCONER: That was perceived to be an Inkatha affiliated area.

you ordered him then to leave. He was released. As he was walking away, Lucky said something to the effect that "What happens if he comes with the Inkatha people for some revenge attack?" and suggested that it would be better that he be killed. That you then went, apprehended the person and ...

MR MALAN: But they would not necessarily have linked it to the police, they might have linked it to Inkatha?

MR MODIKOA: There were members of Inkatha who were drinking alcohol in the house therefore I knew that they would not entertain themselves in her house in her absence.

MR NDAMANE: Our objective was to establish and arm the Self Defence Unit because their duty was solely to defend the community from Inkatha which was based in Kosenye Hostel.

... which was harassing the community. After some time they went to stay in Vusimuzi Hostel with Mr Mduze. There at the hostel they collaborated with Inkatha. On 31 July 1993 whilst I was sitting at home in the dining room I heard men talking outside saying wake up men. Because there were patrols ...

In the meantime I understand that two of the mentioned victims have appointed counsel to attend to their interests in the matter and I understand also that the Inkatha Freedom Party has engaged him to look after their interest as well.

MR MAGUBANE: It is because at that time after the - because they were calling me Inkatha at that time, therefore I had to run to KwaMadala hostel because I had no place to run to.

MR BEEA: There was collaboration as far as we knew between right wing organisations and the Inkatha Freedom Party and at some point - it's just that I can't remember and put dates into perspective today - at some point information that we had, that I had was that one of the extreme right wing ...
