In 1993 I was working in town and I would sleep over.  Putemela went to Jallie's house, his relative.  When he got there Jallie was on leave.  He asked Jallie's live-in girlfriend to go to 13 15 in the same area to look at the shack because he had some business there.  When she asked him to do this, to stay over there for three days, I was not there.
 He was called at night.  He was called by a Comrade,

Mangnane.  His surname is Jikie.  His first name is Mangnane.  He said Putumela, somebody is calling you outside.  Putumela was sleeping at the time and when he got up it was about half past nine.  When he went to the front yard he was beaten up.  He ran away.  His friends saw him.  When they saw him they said they had been coming from a night vigil.  They went to Nomzimo to tell him that the male Comrades were beating Putumela up.  Nomzimo called a Casper.  When the police came together with the two children who reported the case they found Putumela lying down.  He could speak at the time.  They asked for his details.  He told them who he was.  He said he remembered two people that had been beating him up.  He said it was Mangnane and Dolo.  He could not remember the rest.  They asked where they stayed.  Dolo at S78 and Mangnane was staying at somebody elses house.  They were not found where they stayed.  
 They found a Shangahn man.  I do not know the name.  They tool Putumela to hospital in Sybrand.  He got there at about half past nine.  Our relatives were informed that Putumela was at hospital.  I had not come back from work.  I was sleeping over at my workplace.  I have forgotten which street my employer stayed in, but that is where I stayed over.  
 These children then went to the police station to give a statement saying that Putumela had passed away in hospital.  When they had given a statement to the police that he had passed away in hospital, they went to Nomzimo informing her that Putumela had passed away.  As the mother, I was not there.  One of the children went to inform my employers that they do not know what happened to Putumela.  He has been missing for a few days.  They said that he had

been taken by the ANC men.  Apparently, they had been taken by a Casper.  
 These children informed my employers so that I could go home.  I went home.  I asked Dodo what happened with Putumela.  Dodo then told me that the Comrades from Sonderwater and he has been missing since.  Dodo said that Putumela said he would go to Sonderwater because he was not guilty of anything.  
 I thought, perhaps, I should come to the hospital at Rhatong, because I had found his brother there.  I asked the nurses there.  I went to ICU.  They said that there is no such a person, but maybe I should go and look.  I did not find him there.  I went back to the township.  I thought I would go to mortuaries and police stations because I did not where I would go.
