Special Report Transcript Episode 46, Section 6, Time 20:19Dear fellow South Africans, this is a cry from the heart. May the tenth is just round the corner, on Saturday. That is the deadline for applications for amnesty. I appeal to all of you, right across the political spectrum, please take this golden opportunity to apply for amnesty on the most generous terms possible. This applies to you, leaders of political parties. This applies to you, people who were in the security forces. It applies to you who were involved in cross-border raids, because you are exposed to the possibility of civil proceedings for damages against you by those who were victims of your operations. I appeal to you who were in the self defence units in the townships, in the hostels. I appeal to you who were in the CCB, Military Intelligence. This amnesty is one that would expunge any criminal or civil liability you are likely to have. Please come forward because this is an opportunity to put the past behind you, to help in the process of your own healing and the healing of this beautiful land. Please come.
