He also used it to break a hostel window. He cannot identify any person on whom he used his kierie and whether the people he hit with the kierie were killed or not. He ... As an APLA operative the applicant's general instruction from the APLA High Command was to prosecute the armed struggle by all means against the then undemocratic and oppressive "racist minority regime". As part of the armed struggle, APLA cadres had to seek and attack the "bastions and minions" ... He further testified that he believed that as a person put in command of the operation, he had implied authority to take such a decision. He had then instructed the applicants who were under his command and the others present, to shoot the occupants of the car, including Mr Moatshe as soon as the ... ______________________________________________________This is an application for amnesty in terms of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, 34 of 1995 ("the Act"). The applicant is currently serving 45 years imprisonment, having been convicted of 13 counts of murder, 12 counts of ... MR HEYNEKE: That was the usual procedure and because there may possibly have been people who could see me from a distance and I wanted to ensure that there be no idea that the device may have been harmless. The applicant, Phila Martin Dolo, was at all material times a cadre of the Azanian People's Liberation Army, APLA, the military wing of the Pan African Congress, PAC, having received training as such under its auspices outside of the Republic. He was tried and convicted on 5 December 1994 in the ... CHAIRPERSON: Have you had an occasion of studying the application form as it stands before us, Mr Molohlanye? You know we don't want people to be shoddily represented. I must say I am a little upset that it doesn't look like this matter again has been properly prepared for presentation. MS MAYA: You say that in 1960, June, after people had been shot at Ngquza he was taken by the police, beaten up and detained. Is that so? The applicant's evidence is that he, Derrick Skosana and one Solly Moroape attacked Shabangu's house on the instructions of his brother Joseph Nkuna. They were ordinary foot soldiers acting on his brother's orders. The brother was undoubtedly a senior person in the African National Congress. ... CHAIRPERSON: Certain problems have arisen in that it appears that the bundle of papers were only made available to all the parties including the Members of the Committee, last week.

However in his viva voce evidence before us he stated that he wanted to kill the deceased inter alia, so as to intimidate ANC people into joining the IFP, because the deceased was brave and lead assaults and attacks on IFP supporters, because the deceased had told him he had made a vow to kill him ... Applicants treated the petrol attendants very shabbily during the operation. Not once did they mention that they were Apla operatives, there to repossess money for the benefit of the organization.

It emerged from the evidence that the Applicant not only discussed the planning of attacks on military targets, he provided or arranged for the provision of the explosives and detonators used in the construction of car bombs. Unfortunately, no evidence was led before us as to what the ... The Northern Transvaal Security Branch under the command of the 4th Applicant obtained the assistance of Vlakplaas in their search for MK Operatives who were active in the killing of a number of people, including policemen, and other acts of terror. Mr Mthembu had not seen those affidavits at that stage and we discussed it with him and it is obvious that he had to take instructions from his client and the matter stood down and he was informed that after he has taken instructions it might be necessary for us to call the people who made the ... MS MAYA: You also requested that there have to be a day to remember, to commemorate the people who died on that day. The version of the applicant was to the effect that the two deceased, Mnyakeni and Khumalo, were from Sundra area, but regularly visited and stayed in Mandela Squatter Camp. They were accompanied by other unknown youths. They lived a lawless life, carrying firearms and shooting at random in the ... I think it was a waste of taxpayers' money for them to assemble as many people as they did, when in fact as I say, we invited them to come and fetch Mr Maleka. MR KWEYAMA: Yes, I do. Mr Msani and Mfanafigele Mkhize were the people who acquired the vehicle. In all the cases of the robbery the targets were private individuals. They were not political targets.
