They came that night for me. Again, it was the same, same person who was the same person, Rooi Otto all the time. I was sjambokked that night at Alexandra Police Station. There were other people being tortured whom I can never know who they were, but I know that Marlo Simpumala was also around ...

... would be expected to have acted in 1984, it's basically the same procedure applicable to crowd control situations, there should be maximal use of sjamboks, teargas, rubber bullets etc, I think the rubber sjambok was also prohibited after '84. I may be wrong there. And then batons and ...

but he was pale, pale that time. On his return he was crying telling us he was from Kempton Park Police Station, they beat him, they kick him, they sjambok him there, he said on their way to Kempton Park Station. He was inside of the car's boot. How do you manage it, how do you think. That's ...

MR PIENAAR: Nothing. I want to confirm to you again. A soldier never carries a sjambok, never carries a haelgeweer, the only thing he takes with him is his weapon, that's and R4 or R1 or AK47, whatever it may be. No other weapons.

... wanted to know from us just what was going on at the time and what we were doing about it. That was when they disapproved of our decision to just sjambok and let these people go, because they felt that it was wrong that they had come from so far a place to attack us and then we just let them ...

an elderly lady from Umlazi. She had been in detention previously, I think, also under Section Six and she had been severely beaten. She still had sjambok marks on her back. I would just maybe ask the Commissioners to see if they can find out what has happened to Gladys and, you know, whether ...

MR R.B. CELE: No, I cannot remember because a lot of people partook in the lashing of those people. There were about 600 people present. You would give them a lash and give the sjambok to another person until they had received their number that had been decided upon.

speak first and not ourselves, we thought is correct for us to come and hear in silence this time the screams, the begging for mercy as electricity, sjambok, knobkierrie was tearing both the human body and soul. All these things in exile and underground in prison we did experience, but the ...

poles. They said I must get out from the car and I must put my hands around the poles. And when I tried to do that they started hitting me using a sjambok, and then they said these two black policemen must hold my hands so that they can beat me. They went on and on beating me. They were not ...

... it was really burning. Gunshots were fired, people were going up and down. We were told to make a salute, a fist and if we salute then you get a sjambok behind by the police, you are aimed at. So it was a chaos. What you were to do it is up to you what are you doing. Are you lifting up your ...

I was beaten with the sjambok. The stuffed me in a mello-yellow, I pretended that I had died. They were burning me with cigarette butts, I have wounds on my head still. I do not have all my teeth - my set was affected - they kicked me in the mouth.

... They said wake up. Then we were taken with their cars. Then they said, take out your blanket. They said, sit down. A certain man came with a sjambok and said I’m going to hit you with this. He said, sleep. I was moving from the distance from that corner to that corner. I was wet at ...

... a piece from a newspaper, a Mr Isaac Setseku who was tortured by means of electrical shocks, during my days. I can tell you they might have used a sjambok, they might have used a kierrie, and I'm against this whole question of electrical shocks. A policeman would not have dared doing it. Mr ...

... to kill the alleged witches. When the crowd of which he was part arrived at the deceased's home, she was assaulted. Mulaudzi hit her with a sjambok. He also instructed the younger people to put a second tyre on the body of the deceased. He also pelted the house of the deceased with ...

MR SIQHOLA: He would be the first person to assault people, he had a sjambok.

MR LYSTER: Interrogated while sitting on a cold, wet floor. Is that where Sergeant Tshivhase beat you on the back with a sjambok?

MR MABOYA: I think I was the only one, because at that time if you hold meetings, Black school children, they will come there, they won't ask you, they'll just sjambok you.
