The entire operation took place against the backgroundof a general state of emergency in the country.  Anarchy reignedor ruled in the country and the country was on fire, the countrywas burning.   This was the only possible and effective actionagainst trained activists and terrorists.   We could not arrestthis person since there was no appropriate evidence against thisperson, this was a people's war and struggle, no one was willingto give testimony in court because they were scared they wouldbe killed the next day.   It was a very clandestine action whichwe took to counteract the efforts of the ANC.
