MR DEHAL
Perhaps you should deal with the first aspect as well.

	"This was not a bomb as is evident from the transcript.  This was defused by the police, there was no detonator placed in this explosive device, on purpose.   
	During May 1986, the Eminent Persons Group of the Commonwealth visited South Africa in the hope of brokering a negotiations deal between the liberation movement and the South African government, then headed by P.W. Botha.  If my memory serves me correct, the Head of the delegation was the present President of Nigeria, Mr ...(indistinct).   In an attempt to scupper the possibility of a deal, P.W. Botha sent South African Security Forces to attack a number of targets in the neighbouring States simultaneously.  P.W. Botha did this, it was widely believed at the time, to set about a negotiations process which excluded the ANC.  This I understand was the message he had given to the Eminent Persons Group.  	
	At this stage I decided as Commander of my unit, that it was important that the ANC's presence be felt at that specific time so that the ANC can be regarded as an integral part of any lasting solution to the then conflict.   A device was then put together, consisting of explosive charges which on their own are inert, for example it can be thrown from a building or it can be put in a fire, but will remain harmless.  These devices were camouflaged with paper, electric wire, aerosol spray to make them appear to be more sinister than they actually were.  
	Together with Jeanette Apelgren, who was subsequently a State witness against me in the trial, who is the sister of Greta, I proceeded to the Pine Parkade as a central location in Durban and placed the "bomb" under (it should be under, not on), under one of the cars.  This was intentionally done at the Pine Parkade, as this was known as one of the most secure parking garages in the city at the time and in full knowledge that the parcel would be found very quickly.  The parcel was found and the police attempted to "disarm" or "defuse" the "bomb".  The remainder of the so-called bomb which was thought to contain a detonator, was taken away in a bomb disposal vehicle and by ten o'clock the following morning, had not exploded clearly indicating that there was no detonator in there."   
	I must just mention here that the Security Police at the time went together with the media, went on a long song and dance about how terrible the ANC is, placing such a device there, and neglected to mention that the device did not explode and would not have exploded. 
"For this incident I was convicted of the lesser offence of causing a public disturbance under Section 52 of the Terrorism Act.  I was sentenced to, if my memory serves me correct, to two years.  The police themselves added additional explosives to what was left of the parcel after it had been dismantled and detonated themselves.  That was after more than 12 hours."
