Mr Chairman this is the report I got and I believe that the soldiers didn't want to kill people.  My soldiers never were hostile to people.  I remember when I took over they did not want what was happening to the people of Inkonkwene(?) and at Puni(?), I know that, I was part of the military.  I know also that on the day of the coup, my coup, we had the displeasure of being called at night, after I had addressed the people at Mdantsane stadium, we were alerted to smoke billowing around a highway and soldiers went there, tried to get the people away and then at night around 12 o'clock, at Fort Jackson there were so many people moving around there, looting TV's and things like that, they did not want to shoot the people, because I said people this coup is for the people, if we try to stop these people and they don't want to leave rather leave them. You know we can't make it worse by shooting anyone here.  Shoot rather in the air and so on.  They wouldn't shoot people.  It was at night that time, if they were criminals they would have shot people there.
