ANSWER
No I think dope them and eventually what happened we gave them knock-out drops because the poison didn't work.  We administered the poison on three occasions apparently after it was doubled and trebled, we went back to, I myself once picked it up from General Lothar Neethling the poison, the poison and knock-out drops.   The poison didn't work.   Koos Vermeulen went back the second day for a double dose and about two weeks later, it was just after the Lindley incident on the Sunday 25 October, Vusi was released on 11 October, the first poison administered on the 11th, the second dose on the 12th and the third one on the 25th the Sunday after, and on the second occasion Koos Vermeulen went back to General Neethling's office and the third one Koos accompanied me on the Sunday morning to his house where we picked him up and went to the forensic laboratory.   He prepared again this poison, mixed it and he drew it up in two of my insulin syringes, 100 unit syringes, and said you must administer it.   He couldn't understand why this poison was not working because he said apparently if you administer it to sheep within minutes the sheep just give one jump and fall down and the result would be a heart attack.
