CHAIRPERSON: We welcome you and I will ask you to give your testimony freely. So that all the people inside this hall can hear you very well. I will ask one of the Commissioners to help you with the oath. MR NDLOVU: Okay. Due to the reason that I was young and the codes of conduct stated very well that a person should be 18 in order to join the SDU, I was given my task to make sure that every time when the people who were over 18 which were regarded as the battalion, every time they launch an ...

The applicant was not brought in time by the prison authorities, for various reasons. Whatever the reason was, valuable time has been lost and inconvenience has been caused to a number of people apart from just the Members of the Committee.
