MR WILLS
Now not only did Basie Smit agree with you, so too did Gen van der Merwe.  He realised immediately the extreme importance of the situation to the extent that he issued what I think you conceded was an order that you mustn't continue with arrests in this matter until such time as very senior people have been involved and he referred to, in your evidence, the State President and Foreign Affairs and
 various embassies?
