MOKOTEDI MPSHE
Thank you Mr Chairman and members of the Committee. Mr Chairman, we're going to start with the application of Stephen Mqeketsi Monyake, application number 1352/96.  Mr Chairman, I just want to put on record that all the people affected by this application, that is the victims and next of kin have been informed.
	I have copies of the notices sent out to them and they have sent the acknowledgement of receipt back to Cape Town, I have them with me and they've indicated that they will be coming.  My information which I got yesterday as well as this morning via Mr Dennis Bloem who's here in prison is that the ANC has arranged that they  be brought here today by Kombi and they're coming with one of the ANC leaders, Mr Thulo Machaba.  
	They are on their way per Kombi but I want to make an application that we commence with hearing because the message given to me by him as well as the legal representative - and when I spoke to them yesterday, is that they are not opposing.
