  • Thabong (Welkom)
    677 THABONG (WELKOM) The further particulars to the indictment as amended (p.81) allege that during 1984 the UDF and COSAS organised and riots and disturbances occurred. On 11 August 1984 accused No 20 made a speech at the funeral of a person who was killed in the riots and he called on the mourners to fight till eventually liberty and freedom were attained. He called on the women to participate in the fight which according to him had started already in 1912. A workshop was held in Thabong during 1983 by accused No 19 and accused No 20 to explain the UDF to COSAS members. Notes of accused No 19 and No 20 on a meeting with COSAS on 7 October 1983 state that the strongest organisation in Thabong is COSAS^ though, there are others. Accused No 20 spoke on the history of resistance in South Africa and accused No 19 on the history and nature of the UDF. The students emerged out of the meeting with renewed determination and resolved to form a UDF Area Committee. They sent a delegate to talk to people in Bloemfontein and Brandfort about it. Accused No 19 and accused No 20 saw'"a lot of prominent individuals as well and explained the UDF. Their immediate concern was the Black local authority elections. A follow-up visit was to be made by accused No 20 and accused No 21 on 9" November 1983. Exh C.52. That the UDF was very active in that area also appears from the minutes of the UDF GCM of 30 June 1984 {exh Q.2) where accused No 19 reports that over 3 000 signatures were collected in Welkom and Parys.
