MR LAX
Let me refer to be fair o you, read to you the entire paragraph in its context.  This is after you've received the AK-47 from Magwaza, you say that Magwaza refused to listen to you, that he'd already heard what had happened from the others, and there was no time for discussions.  You say that the mob of ANC members under the leadership of Dastile approached in the direction of the sports field which was adjacent to Magwaza's house
"I moved in their direction, shouting and asking whether they came to discuss the same issues.  They did not seem to hear me.  I was under the impression that they were armed with an assortment of weapons, including firearms."
And then this is the important part:
"Whilst I was approaching them they seemed to spread out as if planning to attack.  The tension was very high and the visibility poor.  A shot rang out.  I cannot say where it came from but under the circumstances believed it was the ANC attacking us.  I started to fire in the direction of Mr Dastile, leading the group.  I am not sure, I think I shot Mr Dastile."
Now, several questions arise out of what I've just read to you, and the first one I was dealing with was that, on this version that you have given, before you opened fire you only heard a single shot at that point in time, and that's in great contrast to your evidence to us that there were many shot, that you had to fall on the floor and take cover and so on.  I want you to explain why you gave us the impression there was a great deal of shooting before you opened fire, whereas in fact in this affidavit you only mentioned a shot.
