LORRAINE LENKOE
Thank you very much.  On the 5th of March 1969 the police arrived at home looking for my father.  My mom asked them, because my father was in bed at that time, my mum opened the door and asked them who are you, and they said they are the police.  They want to interrogate my father.  My mum woke my dad up and he dressed.  My mum asked them where do you take him to?  And they said we are taking him to the Moroka Police Station.  Well he left with them.
 The following day, on the 6th, my mother went to Moroka Police Station.  On her arrival there they told her that the police were not from Moroka Police station they were from Pretoria.  My father is at that moment in Pretoria.  Well my mum went to hire transport so that they can be transported to Pretoria which is John Thom and Emmanuel Lenkoe.  When they arrived at the police station the major in charge told them that it's impossible to see my father because he was detained.  They had to come back home.
 On the 10th my mother went to see a lawyer, Joel

Carlson.  When she arrived home from town she was informed that the police were at home to bring the message that my father is dead.  He hanged himself in the cells.  That's where my mother started feeling uneasy. The following day they went to Joel Carlson to tell him that my father has passed away.  
 On her way to Pretoria - they were not allowed to get any information.  My mother begged them, together with Joel Carlson until they were told that they are still busy with their investigations, my father will be released.  But what they can only say is that my father hanged himself with a belt in the cell.
 They waited a month and a week before my father could be buried, because Major Swanepoel or the Boers were not yet through with their investigations.  On the last day my grandmother, the mother to my father, stood up.  My grandmother went together with them to Pretoria and she wanted to see Swanepoel.  Swanepoel on his arrival said he is Swanepoel but my grandmother said no, this is not Swanepoel.  I want you to tell Swanepoel that I have given birth to this child.
