was in command of this operation.  He is now a State witness 
and worked for National Intelligence with Willie Nortje.  
There were various members of units, C10 as well as from 
the special task force there at this specific operation.   
If I can mention some of the task force members.  Sarel 
Jansen van Rensburg, Ashley Crookes, Floors De Jonge and

purpose was that when Lucas Khimelo met them on the dirt 
road and when they saw the weapons and were paid with cash, 
if they gave this cash money to those people, that would 
have been the sign and we would have jumped out of the 
bushes from the side of the road and arrested them.  In the 
past we already had already had such operations where they
