MS VAN DER WALT
My sympathies go to the family.  I think it must have been a very traumatic experience if you didn't know what happened to a family member.  However, what does bother me with regard to this whole aspect, I think if one looks into all the statements of the family, it points to a degree of payment, because there are family members involved and children involved.  The documents are referred to, towards the end, the print-outs on page 137 and the fact that what was very interesting in terms of Mr Madondo was the fact that the registration plates, that BK something, she refers to it in her statement that she makes to Priscilla Jana, she repeats those letters here again and all of us know that in 1979 those number plates never existed.  Then read together with what is stated on page 137, there has to be doubt in one's mind as to what really happened to Oupa Madondo, because what would the police do with Oupa Madondo since September 1979 until,  let us accept my client's version that it must have been the second part of 1980, I think Mr van Zyl also linked it to certain other cases.
