The list is much longer than Onkgopotse, Tiro and David Webster. Most of these assassinations were planned and executed by military and police death squads in Gauteng. Like Vlakplaas and Daisy, its counterpart for foreign operations, and the CCB base on a small holding near Pretoria. Much is known about Vlakplaas and its commander, Col Eugene de Kock, now on trial on 112 charges of fraud and murder. De Kock decided to kill his Vlakplaas predecessor, Dirk Coetzee who had spilled the beans on death squads and had to flee the country. The Vlakplaas men built a bomb in a Walkman and mailed it to Coetzee in Lusaka. Coetzee thought the parcel suspicious and refused to accept it. It was sent back to the man whose name was put on it as sender by De Kock’s men, lawyer and ANC activist, Bheki Mlangeni. Mlangeni and Coetzee had met earlier to talk about hit squad activities. On February 15, 1991 Mlangeni picked up the parcel from his office and went to watch a movie with his wife of two months, Seipati.
