Yes Mr Chairperson.
	Madam, you understand that my client has expressed his deep remorse at the loss of your family members and your employee but you do understand that he has explained that there was no mens rea to commit either of these murders and in fact he wasn't party to one, the one that he was party to you understand was an instruction and from somebody who was senior.  This was a political activity.  My instructions are that he had to accept instructions from a comrade and this is how they functioned, you couldn't question, you just obeyed orders and it all happened very quickly.
	Further you understand my client was trained in political warfare, there was a lot of political activity, he honestly was led to believe that there was an involvement by your family members with the IFP.  You do appreciate that if they came to rob they did not steal any of the cattle, livestock which they had been losing when the IFP were fighting them.  When they attacked your father's farm it was purely to obtain firearms which they understood were being supplied to the opposing party.
	My instructions are that they just took what they really needed for their cause and you have confirmed that four guns were missing which only one was left behind.  Today he has made full disclosure to you hoping to come clean and explain to you from their side what had transpired and not to cause you more pain.  I have nothing else to say, thank you.
