That was the procedure.  A person had to be questioned first.  Given, to be given an opportunity to speak for himself.  We didn't want to do something and only later on discover that we were wrong.  We wanted to make sure which organisation a person belonged to in terms of membership cards and things like that.  These people used to go around carrying membership cards of their organisations, and some of the cards that we used to come along in the houses were IFP cards.  We then asked him questions.  We also asked him questions because he was a township boy.  He didn't come from Natal or Transkei, or an outside area.  He was a person from Gauteng, a township boy.  We therefore had to give him a chance.
