MR DRAHT
Thank you, Chairperson.
	It's my submission that the applicants who are serving quite a long period in gaol would not lie just for the cause of it.  It became clear throughout their evidence that there is no names or acts that they could have hidden, or that there was any reason for them to hide any instructions given to them from any higher political figure.  They would have gained nothing in telling lies to this Committee.  
	One must bear in mind that the incident took place more than five years ago, and people's perceptions of a traumatic incident that happened to them are not the same.  It's therefore obvious that discrepancies in the way of experience in the incidents relating to this day may differ from one another.  Even the statements, this is during the evidence in trial, differed from each other, even 'though the Court case took place barely two years after the incident.  The applicants' knowledge that they have lied here in the trial, the applicants acknowledge that they have lied during their trial, and that at this hearing they gave explicit evidence of their acts in this regard.
	It's also clear from Mr Dastile's evidence that the ANC group has been armed, and that they were a much bigger group than the IFP supporters.  I submit that there would be no reason for the Committee not to find that the applicants didn't or did disclose the full facts. 
	I hereby request the Amnesty Committee to grant the applicants amnesty in the light that they meet all the requirements of the Act.
