CHAIRPERSON
Thank you very much, Mr Machete for the time you have given to share your story.  We have taken note about the medical expenses that you inflicted after the torture and assaults that were meted out to you by the police.  We will make our recommendations to the Reparation and Rehabilitation Committee.  We are also very happy to note that you have forgiven Mr Pretorius and others, but we feel that perhaps to really forgive, you must be part of the new structures that the Reparation and Rehabilitation Committee is trying to start in this area.  We will be making an announcement about a meeting that will be a follow-up meeting and we will bring all the people who made statements in this area in May, that is where we are going to discuss further how we are able to through this process of reconciliation and forgiving.  Thank you very, very much.
 Well, as I said, this was our last statement for the day.  I would like to thank everybody who came here today to support our victims and witnesses.  We also thank the witnesses who came forward and we would like to say we have designated statement-takers for this area in Louis Trichardt.  They are taking statements every day at the ANC constituency office.  The contact person as Reverend Sadike.  So anyone who has not given his or her statement, please see Mr Lebowani Rangolo and Reverend Sadike and they will be able to help you.  If you go to the ANC constituency office, you will be helped.  
 We would also like to thank a number of people who helped our logistics officer, Rama, in making arrangements for this hearing.  We in particular would like to thank the Louis Trichardt Town Council for giving us the use of this premises and for arranging all the meetings that we had before the hearings.  
 We also want to thank the social workers who have been working with our briefers for the whole day today.  We would like to thank the churches in this area for the wonderful work that they did to announce the hearings in their churches and to form the committee that made everything run so smoothly.
 We did not introduce Dean Farisane, who is a member of Parliament at the National Assembly, because we knew that we were going to ask him to close this session for us with a short prayer and maybe just a short statement about the hearings today, as someone who has been very much involved in the resistance movement in this areas.
 Dean Farisane?  Whilst he is coming forward, I will ask you to leave the earphones on the seats that you were occupying.  Before Dean Farisane can say something, I would also like to thank the police, the security people and all the people who looked well after us.  I think this area in the Northern Province, we have never had so much protection and security in the whole country like we had in this region.  We felt very safe and very cared, I mean we felt very comfortable and we thank them for their caring and all the assistance that they gave us.  Thank you very much.
 Over to you.
