GALELEKILE NGAKI
One I remember is the death of Mr Mtonga.  As we were in the uniformed department we were not aware of what was happening.  On the day before this incident I read this from a newspaper, from the Daily Dispatch, from the Daily Dispatch editor.  He wanted me to make a comment that Entamaga area, a body was found lying there in the bushes.  This person was shot.  Fortunately I knew this man.  He was from Tamara.  He would say that he wondered whether the police were involved in this incident.  I told him that I was going to investigate.  I had to call Tamara Police Station to confirm whether there was a person who was found in the bushes.  They confirmed this and they said that he was taken to the mortuary.  They suspect a robbery.
 There were rumours around about what really happened, but I reported to the Commissioner that there is a man found at Tamara.  He was taken to the police.  I then told the Commissioner that there are other rumours that this person was from Mdantsane.  Nobody knew him.  He would report to other Commissioners and he would call me telling me what to report to the press.  At this time it was said that in Mdantsane there was one man who was shot.  This matter became clear after a while.  I reported to the press that the person was found, a body was found near Tamara and the press came back to me asking me about the rumours that this person was from Mdantsane.  I could not comment, because I was trained not to comment on such things.  I was not in a position to comment or I had to be, I had to avoid the press.  I did not confirm this at all, how this person died, but there were rumours that this person was from Mdantsane.  He was being investigated by the Special Branch Police.  I cannot say I have done nothing, because I have given out a report.
