MR VAN DER BERG
As it pleases you.  Mr Chairperson, it is clear that the applicant during this whole application, told blatant lies.  The applicant and that is in paragraph 4, did not, his evidence did not correspond with the statements that he made.
	The applicant's deviations is in that he made certain additions to it, which is not manifested in one of his statements.  6.1, the applicant in his evidence in chief made mention of the fact that with his hands and gun in the air, he shouted with a group of people "Viva ANC".
	6.2, the applicant also mentions in his evidence in chief, that he was very nervous and anxious and he never mentioned this earlier on in his affidavit.  He also mentioned that he did not give any warning shots.
	6.4, in the affidavit it is not mentioned that he had certain discussions with the AWB members.
	6.5, the applicant also mentions that he was an ANC supporter and it does not appear in bundle A or statements.
	6.6 Mr Chairperson, I think I would say this is the most important aspect in this application.  It is very important that the applicant's case which he presented to the Court, it is not mentioned in any of his statements, in other words, namely that he saw that one of the AWB members' hand moved down to his hip and that the applicant was under the impression that he is going to take out a weapon and that is the reason why he started shooting.
	In paragraph 7 Mr Chairperson, it seems that under cross-examination, that he agreed that he shot out of self-defence and that was his case.  I asked him pertinently at the beginning of this hearing if it is his case that he shot out of self-defence and he then confirmed that.
