I was writing on an A4 page and at the bottom of the page they asked me to sign. // He was also reminded of Siphiwo Mtimkulu’s fate: thallium poisoning. // Mr. Roelofse said to me, do you see what we have done to Siphiwo Mtimkulu? He can’t do anything now, he is just useless. And if you do not want to work for us, we are going to do the same thing to you.

And then they released me at the early hours of the day and then after about two weeks I heard from other COSAS members that there was a receipt that was dropped at the place that we use to frequent in New Brighton, Port Elizabeth. And this receipt had my name on it and a certain amount of five hundred or six hundred rands which to some other people meant that maybe I was a paid police informer.
