MERRIAM M MATETE
I was arrested with other boys and they were assaulted also. I requested one of the Black CIDs to call Mr De Kock.  He said to me De Kock is not going to listen to your story, and I said please, just call him, and De Kock came.  I said to him I understand that we are leaving for Wolmaransstad, can't you let me go and get clean clothes, because this is not enough for me.  And he said go and get the red Kombi and I was glad because I realised that I actually saved these three Coloured boys that were assaulted.  We were all taken in that Kombi to Leeudoring, that is where we slept in the cell.
