CHAIRPERSON
Any questions, Piet?  Nothing.  Mrs Mokae, we have noted your evidence.  We also have the written

statement that you have given us.  Dr Randera has already earlier referred to the fact that you have patiently waited for some time to give your evidence.  We appreciate that.  We want to emphasise that the fact that you are the last person giving evidence, doesn't mean that your case is less important than any of the other cases.  It is just that we have to take cases in a certain sequence. So it is purely coincidental that you were heard last. In fact, you were the penultimate case on the roll, but we had to take the last one earlier for good reason.  So I just need to emphasise that your case will receive the same attention as any of the other cases.
 We have noted that you reported this case to the police. It obviously needs some investigation in order to try and ascertain exactly what happened.  Also, whether indeed it is a matter that falls within the mandate of the Commission. It seems to be a robbery. We will have to look in the context within which this occurred.  There seemed to have been an assault on your husband, as well, in the process.  So we have to look at it carefully.  Before we can reach any conclusions we would need some more information.  There will have to be some more investigation into the matter. But thank you for coming, once again, and thank you for waiting and thank you for being patient.
