Special Report Transcript Episode 38, Section 5, Time 12:50

In October last year we told you the story of six East Rand COSAS activists who blew themselves up with booby trapped hand grenades supplied by Joe Mamasela. That led to the harrowing necklacing of Maki Skosana after their funeral. The Truth Commission hearing in Duduza paid tribute to Skosana last year as an innocent victim. But this week the single survivor of the hand grenade incident told the Amnesty Committee that it was Maki Skosana who introduced him to Joe Mamasela.
