MR MIRANDA
Thank you Mr Chairman, committee.  The deceased's family has expressed to me that they leave the decision of the application for the amnesty by the applicants in the hands of the committee.  They also are thankful that they could be here and that they could be represented in this application for amnesty.  The deceased's wife, the widow, said that she is not in a position to forgive or forget what happened.  She is not in a position to forgive, because God Almighty is the only person that can forgive somebody for their sins and that is who, if one may use a term loosely, that is who they should be applying to to get, have their sins forgiven.
	She will never forget, because Mr Lombo was her first love, Mr Lombo was a loving husband and was a loving father to their children.  Subsequent to this killing of Mr Lombo, she has suffered tremendous hardships in having to emotionally and financially care for her family.  Her brother-in-law assisted her in this regard and she is thankful for that.  Nothing further.  Thank you.
