VUSI LINDA HLENGWA
There is something I would like to ask.  I would like to repeat these words again to the next of kin of Mr Makanja and Mr Simiso, I've just forgotten his last name, I would like to say I don't know how I can take this back and I would like them to look deep down in their hearts and find forgiveness because this thing is really killing me.  I don't have reasons and excuses, I don't know how to put this to them for them to at least find it in their heart to forgive me.   If it wasn't because of Inkatha and UDF violence, Mr Makanja would still be alive and we were not able to sit of talk, instead we preferred violence and I would like them to forgive me.
	I don't like the way he was killed because he was from a funeral to bury his brother and then he died and when I think of these things and I put myself in Mr Makanja's family's shoes, I realise that I can't bear it myself and I feel for his family.  I also thank God that he didn't die and his wife didn't die in that situation.  I feel a great deal of remorse.  I don't know how to explain this thing except to say I ask for their forgiveness.
