MR CURRIN
As requested I've consulted with my client with regard to the amnesty application, the other two amnesty applications around which you wanted certain clarification.  You might recall at the beginning that issue arose and you - what I would just like to place on record is that, and I'm sure that the committee's aware of the fact that the amnesty applications are confidential until the application commences, unless the commission or committee authorises the publication prior thereto.  However, since the Silverton incident was a trial, the record is a public document, my colleague is quite entitled to have access to that.  I'm quite happy to record that that incident relates to a limpid mine which was placed at the Silverton shopping centre which resulted in death and injury.  I'm also willing, without giving any details at all, willing to say that the other incident for which the applicant is applying for amnesty relates to a limpid mine that he placed on a road which was used by army hippos, it was detonated by a front end loader and no-one was killed or injured and the incident relating to Brigadier Malope, just so that the information is before you, Brigadier Malope was in charge of the police at the time of the Winterveld Massacre in which many people were killed and injured by the police and as a result of that, he was targeted for assasination.  And that is another incident in respect of which the applicant is applying for amnesty and that is the only information which I'm willing to provide without authorisation from the committee.
