Van Rensburg, Du Plessis, Erasmus and Roth all insist that it was a Sgt Roy Otto of Vlakplaas. Dirk Coetzee denies this and Sgt Otto has since committed suicide. The former Vlakplaas boss ... The members of the security branch who took part in the torture of the comrades in Botshabelo are as follows: Lieutenant Shaw, Lieutenant Erasmus, Warrant Officer Ramasoeu, Warrant Officer Tsoametsi, Warrant Officer Gillian, Warrant Officer Koch, Sergeant Mamome, Warrant Officer Cronje, Warrant ... The order to eliminate Kondile came from this man, Gen Gerrit Erasmus, the then divisional commissioner of the Eastern Cape security police, who admitted that he had never met Kondile personally.

On the same day former policeman Paul Erasmus made these statements about Stanza Bopape I asked the former Commissioner of Police, Gen Johan van der Merwe about his allegations and charges made by the Goldstone Commission about dirty tricks. Because I made a confession today, here I leave today as a marked man. For the rest of my life I will be stigmatized which will declare to the world that I am a traitor, but had myself, Erasmus and Mdlala we would ever think that we would walk out of here scot free. |
