ADV PRIOR
And the evidence went further, was that the King William's Town Golf Club was certainly different in that they had opened their doors to all races far before any other club had done so.  And in fact the club secretary put up a list to the Committee of the members of the King William's Town Golf Club.  And on a count that I have made there seems to be 19 black members that belonged to the King William's Town Golf Club at the time.
	With respect, if Mr Xundu was attempting to also suggest that the attack was justified on that basis, that notwithstanding the political significance of Mr Radie's golf day, but also that the club was also seen as a symbol of racism at the time, then I submit that is not a correct perception and it is not true, on the objective evidence that was presented to you.
	Finally, Mr Chairman, just on the aspect of proportionality.   Mr Xundu in his application Form 1,  at paragraph 10(b) in response to the question:  Your justification for regarding such acts omissions or offences as acts omissions or offences associated with a political objective, he stated:
"The land was taken by whites through the barrel of the gun and they had to suffer the consequences."
Now inasmuch as that may be interpreted as an act of revenge or an act to make people suffer for consequences of their forefathers, then I submit that that is not sufficient political objective or an act sufficiently associated with a political objective to justify the operation that was carried out.
	Lastly, Mr Chairman, a lot of stock has been put in respect of the role played by Mr Letklapa Mpahlele.  It is indeed significant that nowhere in this application nor the other applications that served before this Committee in East London, and despite the several and many repeated attempts to encourage Mr Mpahlele to come before this Committee to support these applications, he has not chosen to accept that invitation.  One wonders why, and one can only speculate possibly why he does not wish to associate himself with these particular applications or these particular applicants, yet we are told at regular intervals that he was the person that gave the order, he was the person who identified the target, he is the person that provided the logistics.  It's inexplicable that in an application of such a serious nature, where the support or the corroboration seems to be so close at hand, that that support and corroboration is not provided.
