JOHAN VAN EYCK
Honourable Chairperson, the violence in the Black areas was aimed at the Government.  Various organisations were responsible for this; youth organisations as well as political groupings.
	I was appointed as branch commander in Witfontein.  That was quite an achievement for me at such a young age.  That was due to the work which I had performed. I could perhaps mention that I did not receive instructions from officers to make use of interrogation methods, but I believed that they approved of these methods, since in the time that I was there, certain charges of assault were made against me and I could refute the complainants' case by means of statements which I made and the result of that was that the Attorney-General declined to prosecute.  It was clear to me that these officers were well-aware of my actions and my conduct.
