MR LEWIN
Ma Mabuza we can well understand that it's very difficult to try and console you in any way because the story have told us is one of tremendous pain as you say and anguish but it's also of horror for those of us hearing this for the first time.  We would like to salute you for your courage in coming forward because this is part of our past which we can't ignore and all we can say, I think, is that the experience that we've had in the Commission over the last twelve months in holding hearings of this sort and hearing stories, not in any way similar to yours because your story is unique but stories of the same sort of pattern, of people suffering.  Everything seems so needless, so useless and so arbitrary.
