MRS DLAMINI
It was on the 23rd of June 1991 on Sunday.  We were from a meeting at Ndahwa.  It was Richard, Elsie, Happy and myself, we were going back home.  We arrived at home, we found my mother.  Elsie and Happy wanted to go back to school.  We were from a meeting for peace between IFP and ANC.
	When we arrived at home, my mother gave us food.  We sat down and ate the food.  Later two young men arrived, they asked for Richard and they took him with them.  After some few minutes after they left, the two boys - two young men and Richard, one of his friends came by the name of Mbekeni Mkhize and he asked the whereabouts of Richard.  I told him that Richard had been taken away by two young men who were his friends however he said that when you arrived you must wait for him. 
	This young man waited.  Later he started to go and buy and some cigarettes at ...(inaudible) and I asked him - how do you know Richard do not have cigarettes.  He didn't sit down, he stood up and went away outside.  While he was outside for a few seconds - I was still talking to him while he was standing outside and I heard him saying, shouting - there's someone peeping through at the corner of the house.  I said to him - you're lying.  He said - it's true Aunty, just come out and see.
	I get into the door - there was a full door and a half door and I didn't close the half door, I stand at the big door and I peeped through.  While I was peeping through I heard a gunshot and Mbekeni was shot at the door.  After a time we couldn't talk and I saw Mbekeni's cap falling and he started running and I crept back into the house and I told my mother that they are killing us.  I went to hide behind the door - my mother ran away and  entered into one of the skins which were for the cows that we killed for a particular ritual.  Some other people - the females didn't run away because they thought they won't be killed because they're women. They went to the back side of the house or at the extreme end of the house inside and stayed there. There was still a candle burning and the fire was still burning.
