JOHANNES LODEWIKUS GRIEBENAUW
Charles Sebe was liberated from the prison at Middeldrift.  After this, Joe Verster told me telephonically that the task had been carried out successfully.
	Gen Schutte assisted the Ciskei Police with the investigation into the liberation of Charles Sebe and this function was later taken over by Captain Landman.
	As a part of the plan of action, it was decided that Kwane Sebe, the son of President Lennox Sebe, will be abducted to place pressure on President Sebe.
	The SADF component made arrangements for a meeting with Kwane Sebe which took place at the AmaTola Sun as I later learnt.  As was the custom, Kwane Sebe was accompanied by Major General Ngwenya.  From the AmaTola Sun the group then moved to the Holiday Inn in East London where Kwane Sebe and Ngwenya were abducted by masked men.  This I also learnt later.
	I made arrangements because of the information which I had to collect was related to a safe route to the Transkei, unguarded routes, border posts, etc, and I gave instructions to certain Policemen, I can't remember their names, to take up position in certain areas and we had certain codes, using flickering lights, etc.  
	In such a way they had to lead the person right to the border post.  This was all to do with the abducted people to safety.
	The liberation and the abduction was prominently reported in the press and I also reported this to Head Office.  Brigadier Schoon and or Gen Van der Merwe were constantly kept up to date with what was happening.  Brigadier Schoon was personally kept informed and I think if I remember correctly, Gen Van der Merwe was the Security Chief and Gen Coetzee, the Commissioner of Police.
	At no stage did I take part in any of the actions physically, but I accept full responsibility in so far as I was involved in the planning of the Operation and the orders which I issued to members in this regard.
	As a result of the fact that I didn't inform members about the purpose for which they had to collect information, I also accept full responsibility for their actions, in so far as it took place within the framework of my orders.
	After Charles Sebe's liberation and after Sebe and Ngwenya were abducted, once again I attended various meetings of which SADF was the convenor.
	There were various requests for cooperation in the form of information, the provision of information, but I didn't have enough knowledge of the total plan and I took in a very passive attitude and I also felt that the plan was risky and also not feasible.
	I upon occasion then voiced my objections and concerns to Gen Van der Merwe, and he agreed that we, that is the Security Branch, would have a very low profile, maintain a very low profile.
