What I'd like to explain to this Commission is that my mother is quite forgetful.  When my brother was shot I was with him as well as Mr Mnisi who has just testified before this Commission and even when I came back from the hospital I explained to my mother how my brother died and that he was at the hospital.  I also told her that he had been shot.  When I explained to my mother, she said she'd already received a telephone call telling her that my brother had already died.  They also requested me to take my brother's clothes with and I refused because I thought he would need clothes when he gets discharged.  I left the clothes and I think by then he was dead but they were scared to tell me.  With regard to help from the community is that we ran away afterwards because the police were looking for us.  When I came back home on a Thursday just before the funeral, I discovered that there were some people collecting money.  Ten rand from each house in order to help us meet with the funeral expenses.  They said we were not going to be able to conduct the funeral service because it would constitute having an illegal gathering.  We tried to negotiate and make decisions as to how we were going to bury my brother since we were prohibited from doing so.  I met the people who were collecting the money.  The donation was five hundred rand which helped us with the funeral expenses.  That is how the community contributed towards my brother's funeral.  As to the shooting itself, according to the programme we were going to take the buckets and spill the feces at the Administration block and then we would proceed to the Councillors' houses.  After we had spilled the feces at the Administration block we explained to the Comrades that we were proceeding to the Councillors' houses because there were a lot of boycotts that were going on as well as taxi boycotts but we wanted to put more pressure on the Local Council.  There was a certain woman whose son was also involved.  We boycotted her son's taxis.  I think at that time, my brother who has just testified, was talking to the Councillor or the late Councillor, trying to reason with him not to use his firearm.  He told us that the Councillor wanted to shoot us and three minutes thereafter we saw one of the people who were involved coming to report to us that the Councillor had already shot quite a number of people and he was firing randomly.  Somebody told me to try and get some transport to take my brother to the hospital.  I went to check and saw that he had been shot in the right eye.  There were two more people who were shot.  I organized some transport to take them to the hospital.  My mother is quite forgetful and she's not able to explain what happened because at that time she was in a state of confusion because of my father's death as well as my brother's death.
