MRS NDABA
I would like to give the background of all this.  When Nelson Mandela was released, the youth in our area and other areas were going to Matatiele, because we wanted to celebrate the release of Mr Mandela.  Mrs Nombuyiselo's driver had a great responsibility to transport people to that venue, where we were going to celebrate the release of Mr Mandela.
 When we came back, we heard that in Mount Fletcher, there is going to be a rally, an ANC rally the weekend after.    Our children decided to go to Mount Fletcher, because they wanted to learn how things were done and they wanted to invite people to come and address them as 18 march was the day where ANC was going to be launched in our area.
 They asked this driver to take them to Mount Fletcher and he agreed.  He took them to the rally at Mount Fletcher.  When they arrived there, ANC flags were sold and they asked him to buy them these flags because they did not have money.  They said that they would repay him after they had collected some money.
 They said that their aim for buying a flag on the 18th, when they are launching ANC, they would already have a flag.  He bought this flag for them.  When they came back from the meeting, they came with this flag.  On the 17th, as Mrs Nombuyiselo has already said, Zihle was asked who bought this flag for them and he told them who did that.
 They asked him why he didn't ask them to buy flags, this flag for them and he couldn't answer, he couldn't answer them, because they asked the driver to buy the flag because he was there at the rally.
 And they said that they were supporting ANC and if they wanted anything else, they must come to them and ask and in my case, when my house was burnt down, on the 30th.  On the 29th, it was on the 30th when mrs Nombuyiselo's house was burning down, I was going to school.  When I saw this, I went to the police station in Matatiele where I met Mr Vuyo Lupindo who was in the police station in Matatiele.
 He together with another White policeman were sent to that house to observe what was happening.  I went to Maluti and while I was still waiting there, Mrs Zokwe together with Busisiwe came and they were going to report the death of their father and I was still looking at this matter, they told me that even my house was burning down.  I was so scared, because I was thinking of my children because they were in my brother's funeral who died in Johannesburg.  I did not know what to do.
 We came back there and we were all worried, we were scared.  When I arrived there, my house was flat, it was already burnt down and there was nothing I could do.  The police were all over my yard.  When I decided to go and look at this house, there was one girl, Nombulelo Sipika, it was the first time I saw her, she pointed at me and she said that I am the one who burnt down people's houses.
 I did not know what to say because I was arriving at that time and I couldn't understand why she said that I am the one who was burning houses and people came to try and help me and this girl said, I don't know how she could be a
teacher.
 I looked at this girl because it was the first time that I saw her.   I went to the police van and we were arrested for four days in Maluti and Mrs Nombuyiselo has already explained, thank you.
