MS THABETE
Without repeating what has been said Madam Chair, my submission is that there was clearly a political conflict between UWUSA which was perceived to be IFP, and FAWU.
	I think this point has been elaborated and I agree with the parties.  On the ensuing dispute which is whether the Committee should attach much weight to whether it makes a difference whether the applicant actually threw or did not throw the object as seen by Ms Msibi, my submission is that, or my argument is that the applicant disclosed the fact that he planned the whole act. 
	He further discloses the fact that he was present at the scene when the actual act was committed and I think this, how can I put it, it explains the other version of Ms Msibi having identified the applicant at the scene.  Yes, the argument would be that she saw him throwing something at the bus, but considering the fact that Ms Msibi has also admitted to the fact that there was for lack of a better word, enmity between FAWU and UWUSA at that stage, I mean it would explain really why she associated, it explains why she associated seeing the applicant at the scene, with actually the fact that he committed the offence.
	I think that is the explanation I would give, and that is my submission.  Further considering the fact that the bus was in motion, and considering the fact that we heard the applicant saying when the explosion took place, he fell on the ground or something, I mean that as well, you know would explain maybe why Ms Msibi might have seen the applicant bowing down on the ground.
