MR MATELA
At that time the White people did not conform with changes and they were against other political organisations.  We wanted equality, disregarding race.  I see my case as a political one, it's because of the meetings that we were attending and the decisions taken there and we were told that the ANC is the only righteous movement and we wanted to govern.  We went to the Municipal offices and whatever documents we had they would tear them up, and thus I regard my case as a political one, because even the executive of the ANC was aware.
