Thank you Baba, you may be seated.  You've come today with, is the Mrs Melato with you?  We'd like to welcome you.  It is a very sad story, but one which we are hearing fairly often as the Truth Commission receives evidence from different witnesses.
 I'm going to ask you to tell your story in your own words and then I will ask you questions where I want, you know, more information and more clarity.  Will you tell us your story please.
