ALWINUS MRALASI
There is quite a lot - a lot of - I would even asked that you should extend my time because I have a lot to say because it happened twenty six years ago.  It happened in 1968 up to now.  
So in Worcester we spent a night there and then in the morning Sentile Bavata together with a man dressed in white came and said - said - he was going to speak Afrikaans to me and ask me to open - and ask me to go in.
There was also an old man, Madgali, who was an old man - who was quite old, even, I would say the age of the bishop.  Then he went in - we asked him to go in - and this bewaarder  - then we thought we were going to keep him there in the room amongst us.  So early in the morning - the next morning - we were taken to Pollsmoor and there were twenty six of us at the time.  At the reception they wrote particulars about our age, about our marital status et cetera, taking all the details.
At about this time there was a sheet of paper with names like Thike, Willie Manene and we asked these bewaarders  what was all this about.  Then this Willie had evidence in this case and had he - his name appeared on this page.  Then they - the allegation was that we were going to be put in poison in the - in the dam and were going to disconnect the electricity.  Because on the side of Victoria East there is a hill and we as twenty six, as we were - we were - referred to as an army.  And they alleged that we were going to lay there and we were going to take over the whole town and that was not true.
We were there for two months and then in July lawyers came to see us - Mr Vallem, Mr Wayne Peffer, Zeckelwitch and Former Kellis.  There were four of them - two lawyers defending thirteen, two other lawyers thirteen of us.  So we gave statements and after that we were told that  on a certain day in August we were going to appear in Court.  Then it happens that in August we appear in Court - that was in Pollsmoor.  They used to take us from Pollsmoor to the Courts - to the Court - that was Wednesday to Friday.  Then weekends we would spend then in Pollsmoor and there it was slightly better.
We could read newspapers, we could write letters home.  I even wrote a letter to my family and tell them that I was healthy and my wife would respond to my letters to.  And she told me that we had got a baby - a baby boy.   My wife had - my wife had a baby two months old - born on the 6th of May 1968.
