Special Report Transcript Episode 14, Section 2, Time 06:24On the third July, 1991, whilst attending the African National Congress, the first national congress in Durban, my family was attacked. My wife Constance, my daughter Margaret and grandson, Sabata were shot dead with AK47s at close range. Two of my grandchildren, Vuyani and Vusi, narrowly escaped death but were seriously injured with bullet wounds and as a result they were kept in the intensive care of Sebokeng Hospital for two months. I called on the investigating officer at that time for an identification parade and I told him that I am prepared to put my neck on a block; I’ll bring my two children, who were recently out of hospital, to come and identify Khetisi who was then known, a result of that attack at my place and other places, as a vile monster. They successfully identified him among the other four murderers who killed my family on the night of the third.
