SOLOMON SERA
What I wanted to add to my evidence is that in my application for amnesty which I did not mention is that I'm here before the Committee of the Truth and Reconciliation and I want to thank this Committee for giving me this opportunity to appear before it.  In the past we regarded the police as our enemy because they
were used by the previous government.  I'd be very happy if members of the family of the victims would understand the situation of the past, that it was because of that situation which has forced us that we kill their next-of-kin.  That is why I say I'm requesting for forgiveness.
