CHAIRPERSON
Moloko and the family, we would like you to note that the death of Maki was a national shame.  South Africa was looked upon internationally, more especially those who were fighting against apartheid as beasts, as carnivores and that the family managed to stand by Maki even at a time when everybody was saying, away with that family.  We salute you.  The family, more especially Maki, the passing of Maki vitiated all the noble efforts of the liberation struggles.  Everybody was talking about the lack
of order amongst the activists.  In fact, it nearly made some of those people who were collaborators to look more noble than the noble people who were fighting the struggle itself.  Maki and the family have emerged, after all these disclosures, as heroes.  I would say this hearing and this hall have witnessed, who have witnessed this testimony are witnesses of how noble Maki was and I will, without shame, request this house to stand and observe a moment of silence.  Can we all rise.  Thank you.  So what Mrs Seroke was pointing out in terms of those who committed this horror itself, is a challenge to the community of Duduza to say what can they do when their name and the name of the nation was brought into this horror.  We have said already that the deeds were the deeds of Operation Zero Zero and we shall never cease to condemn that kind of a heinous deed.  We thank you Moloko, we thank the family.
