The Self Defence Unit has an autonomous status.  What happened was that the ANC deployed well trained MK members in our respective areas.  Those people trained us as Self Defence Units and then at times, they left the area.  Then the people who were trained, had a right to take the decision on their own.
	That is the Self Defence Unit.  They were autonomous in terms of defending, in terms of operation on the absence of the Commanders or the well trained MK cadres who were deployed in our areas.
