Since the establishment of the Military Council in the Transkei under Gen Holomisa as the Chairman of the Military Council, there were various attempts to overthrow the government and establish a government which is more influenceable by the then South African government.  Various coup attempts were made, the last I think it was in December 1990, where Colonel Craig Duli led the coup and where he, unsuccessful coup during which he also got killed.  This was one of many coup attempts at the time, and at that stage, the Transkei government was very worried because there was no guarantee that future coup attempts would not be successful.  With the death of Craig Duli, one of the or the remaining prominent leader for a potential coup was Mr Mbotoli and thinking of the Transkei at that time was that one way of stopping the coup is actually by eliminating the leader, because the South African government for a successful coup would depend on a non-South African, respectively a Transkeian leader.  During early 1990, the Transkei established through, I understand through telephone conversations, which were monitored, that Mr Mbotoli was in Johannesburg and were looking for him there in order to sort out the problem.	I was approached because we knew each other from the past, to assist in locating him.
