Glad Mokgatle's wife are sisters.  Therefore, I am very sorry that I killed their uncle.  These children of Mr Glad Mokgatle are my brothers.  Therefore, the trouble that I have here in Phokeng, didn't satisfy me because I saw that if I am in jail, it is not satisfactory for me to work for my uncle, because I have killed him.  The better thing was to kill myself. Therefore I didn't have food for about 76 days.   That was not the only deed that I did.  I thought because I wouldn't die because of hunger, I tried to hang myself about three times, but I didn't succeed.  That's why today I come here in front of the Commission and the Baphokeng tribe, and the grand-daughters of Mr Glad and I have come to please ask for forgiveness from them. I have come here to ask for forgiveness in front of the Baphokeng tribe and the children of Mr Glad Mokgatle, and also my grand-children, because I feel I am alone, I don't have any family any more.  Thank you.  (Applause).
