MR FLORES: One of the applicants who already testified was Mr Tait. There were one or two people from the Task Force, I can't recall names.

The facts, briefly stated are that the deceased allegedly was a member of a cell of ANC activists, lead by Sefola, which ... ADV SANDI: You are going to tell us about these two people here. MR SIBEKO: It is possible that there were people inside the shack? CROSS-EXAMINATION BY MR DU PLESSIS: May I proceed Mr Chairman, thank you. Mr Goosen, the information that you had with regard to Morudi and the people that would have been in the house that night, do you agree with Mr Momberg's evidence as far as that is concerned, the question that I asked him? MR NKABINDE: Yes, my name is Abel Nkabinde known as M A Nkabinde. I was born in 1958 in the area of Leandra.

MRS MTSWENI: I do not believe that it was a natural death. He was always undergoing treatment and I think there’s some substance that was coming out of his mouth. I think this was a direct result of the attack by the Inkatha people six previous years.

"to protect my people and to make sure that there was no mismanagement of funds belonging to the SDU members." On their own evidence they believed that Memela and his companions were trained "terrorists" armed with weapons and explosives, who had been responsible for the attack on Winnington Sabelo's family and who were en route to attack a black Counsellor. It is thus clear to us that the applicants ... CHAIRPERSON: Well being entirely selfish, I will first of all make a confession that the members of the Committee have been asked to have lunch with the IDASA people and a distinguished American guest, so it seems that whatever happens, we would probably have to stay here till two o'clock.
