MR MARTINDALE
Mr Chairperson I would like to deal with it in two parts. The one part will be dealing with the question the committee raised yesterday and the other part I would like to just make some further submissions about the other matters yesterday, just to continue them. Mr Chairperson I submit that the committee can grant amnesty in respect of Thando Dlala and I submit that the committee should indeed grant amnesty in respect of that one. Mr Chairman I refer to Section 20 of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, your founding act. And my submission is that although the applicant did not directly participate in the killing of Mr Dlala he still falls within the ambits of this section. I submit that what the committee must do is find that, that act; the killing of Dlala was an act associated with a political objective. Once the committee has done that then it must decide whether the applicant has made a full disclosure.
