FERDINAND BARNARD
Chairperson, they consistently denied that I was involved with any of these organisations and when the bomb exploded, I was left behind just like that.  Nobody did anything to help me out of the situation that I found myself in, there was no debriefing, there was rehabilitation of any nature whatsoever.  What happened was that the weak, spineless politicians of that time ran away and they sat like the proverbial three little monkeys, see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.  They ran away.  They ran away with their tails between their legs, like the cowards that they are.
