MR LYSTER
Mr and Mrs Sesele, thank you very much forcoming and telling us what you have told us today. You have lost your daughter,your beloved daughter, who was only seven years old at the time of this incident.You lost her in tragic circumstances, and perhaps it is a more difficult thingto accept the death of one so young and so innocent. From what you have toldus it seems clear that she was killed by Mr Joe Mamasela, a man who, as youknow, has admitted killing people, beating people to death at the instructions of his employer, the Security Police, andthat also must make it more difficult for you to accept, to know that she diedat the hands of such a man.
It's clear that you have both been very traumatised by thisincident, and we can arrange counselling. The Reparations and RehabilitationCommittee of the Truth Commission can arrange for you to see counsellors ifyou want to, so please, before you go, make sure that you have spoken to usif you would like to take up that opportunity.
We are very sorry to hear that this incident caused the break-upof your marriage, and it must be of some comfort to you to be able to sit heretogether, giving each other support, as you tell us about this very tragic story.
We will follow up the details about the court case that youhave given us and try and find out why the case resulted in an acquittal, andwe will convey those details to you.
Thank you very much for coming in.
