COMMISSIONER
We have heard several witnesses from Clermont - not at this hearing, but at the previous hearings, who told about the shootings and killings in that township in 1988, and all of the people that we heard evidence from were opponents, as you have said, of the incorporation of Clermont into the KwaZulu homeland.  And, as you know, that campaign to have Clermont incorporated into KwaZulu was run by the then Deputy Minister of the KwaZulu Government, Samuel Jamile.  He attacked and killed some of his political opponents, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment for those murders, and he was pardoned and released after serving less than three years of his sentence.  It's terrible to hear how ordinary, law-abiding, peace-loving people like yourself and your wife were shot at like animals, and had their house burned down and lost all their possession, and we hope that those days have passed now in Clermont, although it's clear that in many other parts of KwaZulu-Natal those days have not passed.  We hear your request, and we will certainly do everything that we can to find out why this happened to you, who ordered it, and we will - if at all possible we will subpoena the people that we think are responsible so that they can tell you and others why they did it and who sent them to do it.  So we thank you very much for coming in today and telling us your story.  Thank you.
