Mr Chair I know the rules differ before the Commission, but with the greatest respect, I have a problem with the credibility of the two applicants.  Applicant number one conceded under cross-examination that it was their intention to rob the bank at Mankweng, Standard Bank, it was their intention to rob the bank at Lebowakgomo, it also was their intention to go back to two shops to rob those shops.  Applicant number two under cross-examination and despite his statement said no, it was never their intention to rob the two Standard Banks and the two respective shops.  That's number one.  Number two, as far as applicant number two is concerned Mr Chair, he now avers that his statement to the police, which was never used in Court, is false.  His evidence before the Court was false and even his instructions to his counsel were false.  So Mr Chair, firstly and I know the rules therefore I have a problem with the credibility of the two applicants.
