Phil Kloppers and I drove once again in the direction of Ventersdorp and we saw two vehicles approaching from the front, one was a Honda Ballade followed by a Toyota Cressida.  We saw that there were black passengers in these vehicles.  We turned around and drove past them and once again I gave the signal to those who were manning the roadblock, that would be the flashing of the headlights.
	I pulled over off the road.  The vehicles were approaching and approximately 250 metres away from us they pulled off the road suddenly after the blue lights had been activated.  I could hear the door of the vehicle opening as well as the roof light of the Honda Ballade, I could see it going on and off.  
	I told the men to be careful because one couldn't be sure that people were dropped off or that they were planning an attack on us.  The vehicle then proceeded very slowly and stopped at our roadblock.  We ordered the passengers to climb out, they were searched and we told them to sit down on a small embankment on the side of the road while the vehicle was being searched.
	Once again I posed the questions to the people, where they came from, where they were going, to which political party they belonged.  Phil Kloppers walked on after them and if someone didn't want to answer he gave them a slight hit with the baton.  Many of them or most of them answered that they were ANC members.  
	After that I called Etienne van Zyl and Jaco Badenhorst who were deployed to watch for vehicles.  We decided that this would be the correct target to shoot at.  We stood in a line, I fired the first shot, that would be the signal that the others should commence shooting.
	Everyone except Kallie Meiring, Gert Diedericks and Andre Visser fired at the people.  Kallie Meiring couldn't fire because he was position in such a manner that he had to watch for those who would attempt to run away into the veld.  If he had fired he would have been firing in our direction.  The shooting occurred very quickly, it was a matter of seconds. 	And after that Kallie shouted that a vehicle was approaching.  Some of the men jumped into the Sentra and then sped off in the direction of Randfontein.  Kloppers still shouted after them to meet at the City Hall.  It then came to light that a vehicle was not approaching and Gert Diedericks approached with a flashlight.  
	We held in over the people who were lying there very still, it appeared as if they were dead.  Kloppers gave me the instruction to cut off the ear of a black man, which I did.
