Well it gave me the impression that the police were involved in this, because according to what I heard
EAST LONDON HEARING TRC/EASTERN CAPE
8 M KOTA
they were supposed to lend a helping hand, not to say "serves you right".
 Now during those times the conditions about politics, you know there were harassments, many harassments directed at Sister Mahonga, she was detained by those police.  I wasn't really expecting them to come and help, but that was a condition that was needing urgent attention.
 Well we managed to extinguish the fire.  Sister Mahonga was taken to the clinic.  The sisters on duty called an ambulance urgently and it took her to the hospital.  The sister on duty that day received a telephone call threatening her why did she call an ambulance.  Sister Mahonga went to the hospital that is when she was transferred to East London, and she passed away here in East London.
