Trial Report Consolidated Daily reports about the trial of Dr Wouter Basson: 4 October 1999 – 11 April 2002 This is a record of proceedings in the criminal trial of Dr Wouter Basson, former head of the apartheid chemical and biological warfare programme. The trial took place between October 1999 and concluded on 11 April 2002. During this period, journalist Marlene Burger attended each day of the proceedings and made comtemporaneous reports available to Chandre Gould. Gould edited the reports and they were made available publicly. Since the trial was conducted in Afrikaans, these were the only reports accessible to non-Afrikaans-speakers and the international community. In the interests of ensuring that the trial record remains available to researchers and the public the Institute for Security Studies has archived the daily reports. The reports were made possible by funding received from the Ford Foundation, the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung and the Norwegian Government. Financial contributions were also made by Dr Alastair Hay of the Leeds University's School of Medicine, the Science Policy Research Unit of the University of Sussex and Amnesty International. Trial Report: One Dr. Wouter Basson appeared in court on Monday 4 October 1999 for the start of what is predicted to be a long and complicated trial. He is facing multiple charges of fraud, murder, conspiracy to murder and possession of drugs (ecstasy, mandrax and cocaine). Dr. Basson is represented by Jaap Cilliers and Tokkie Van Zyl, advocates at the Pretoria bar. Dr. Torie Pretorius and Anton Ackerman (SC) are prosecuting. The trial is presided over by Justice Hartzenberg. The trial failed to get underway this week and Basson has not yet been asked to plead. The defence team has raised a number of objections to the charges. In the first instance the defence has argued that the charges relating to any activities in Namibia should be dropped on the basis that Basson qualifies for a general amnesty that was promulgated on 7 June 1989, on the eve of independence by the then South African Administrator General. The amnesty protects all South African police and military members from criminal prosecution related to any operational activity in Namibia before that date. The prosecution will put its arguments next week. The defence has also objected to the conspiracy charges, arguing that it is virtually unprecedented for a person to be charged with conspiracy to murder when the murder took place in a country other than that in which he is standing trial. Once again this will be argued by the prosecution next week. It is worth noting however that there is a precedent in South Africa for this, set in the case against former policeman, Eugene De Kock. The defence has also raised objections to the bail application transcript being used in the trial. They have argued that an interrogation of Basson by the Office for Serious Economic Offences, conducted after his arrest in 1997 should not be admissible as evidence. It is unlikely that Basson will be asked to plead until the matter of the relevance of charges has been ruled on. It is expected that that may happen late next week. Should the defence win its arguments on both the amnesty and the admissibility of the application hearing, the repercussions would be that the charge sheet would have to be revised and a much weaker set of charges will emerge. Should the bail application be ruled inadmissible, it will make the states case on the fraud charges far more difficult to argue and they will not have a basis on which to question the version of the accused. Meanwhile, two days before the start of the trial, Basson granted American film maker, Andrew Jones a three- hour interview. It is understood that Jones is negotiating with American television networks for the sale of the interview. Trial Report: Two The Basson trial went into recess last week after a ruling by Justice Hartzenberg on 12 October. Court resumes again on Monday 25 October. In a 90-minute judgement last Tuesday, Judge Willie Hartzenberg ruled that six of the eight conspiracy to murder charges against Wouter Basson had to be withdrawn by the State. His ruling is based on his interpretation of the relevant clause of the Criminal Procedure Act, which does not allow prosecution in a South African court for crimes committed on foreign soil. Hartzenberg also found that, in any event, Basson could not be prosecuted for crimes committed in Namibia, since the amnesty granted in June 1989 (and extended in February 1990 to specifically cover all members of the SA and SWA security forces) had been recognised by the present Namibian government and thus indemnified Basson from prosecution in South Africa "for crimes which Namibia does not wish to pursue". Despite the fact that the same prosecution team successfully charged Eugene de Kock in 1995 with conspiracy to murder for crimes committed outside the country (attempted murder of Dirk Coetzee, murder of Vlakplaas operative Brian Nqulunga in what was then Bophuthatswana) Hartzenberg found that this had been tantamount to the State "creating a new crime". Since De Kock's defence team never challenged the charges and the matter was never argued, the Basson case ruling is the first in SA on this matter. The charges that have been withdrawn include Charge 31, involving a conspiracy to murder enemies of the state and own security force members who present a security risk. Actions emanating from this policy include the poisoning of 200 Swapo prisoners of war in a detention camp and the murder of five Swapo members at Fort Rev, Ondangwa - the only murder charges, which actually placed Basson at the scene. Basson will also not be charged for other murders that took place outside the borders of South Africa including those of Gibson Mondlane in Mozambique and Enoch (Knox) Dlamini in Swaziland. Also not to be heard is charge 61 involving a plot by an SADF hit squad (the CCB) to contaminate the water of a Swapo transit camp with cholera shortly before the Namibian elections. Hartzenberg upheld the State's right to prosecute Basson on Charge 45 - death of a Swapo member who was fed poisoned "jungle juice" in Owamboland but flown to 1 Military Hospital for treatment on the grounds that he had died within the court's jurisdiction. The fate of Charge 59 - hanging of baboon foetus in Archbishop Desmond Tutu's garden - is still undecided. The judge ruled that as presently formulated, it does not constitute the crime of intimidation, since no actual threat was issued. The State has the opportunity to reformulate the charge, or amend it. If this cannot be done, it, too, must be dropped. On Charge 63, also challenged by the defence, the judge made the extraordinary ruling (not requested by the defence) that while the charge may stand on the grounds that some of the resulting actions took place in SA (murders at Zeerust, etc) the defence has the right to object to all and any evidence that may be presented in relation to the six withdrawn charges. This could pose a serious problem for the State, since without being able to present a full account of the CCB's policy, methods of operation, etc, it could be hard-pressed to convince the court of Basson's guilt in regard to the remaining murder/attempted murder charges. Lack of this evidence would effectively remove the motives for the remaining 14 murders as well. The State could face a further major obstacle in that at least some of the secret witnesses lined up to testify in return for indemnity from prosecution may now decide, in the light of the fact that they are implicated only in the six withdrawn charges and/or are covered by the Namibia amnesty, not to give evidence after all. It would appear that the prosecution has a limited right to appeal against the judgement, which is likely to mean that the trial will go ahead with the exclusions as ruled by the Judge. Even though Basson has still not been asked to plead and his trial has thus not formally begun, Hartzenberg granted the defence's request that his bail conditions be relaxed for the duration of the trial. He thus no longer has to report to a police station once a week. The State did not oppose the request. Trial Report: Three The trial of Dr. Wouter Basson began in earnest on Monday 25 October with Basson pleading 'not guilty' to the 61 charges put to him. The prosecution announced that they would not be appealing the Judges decision to drop charges relating to activities in Namibia (for which Basson is said to have qualified for amnesty) and charges relating to activities outside the borders of South Africa. It is possible that the prosecution may appeal the Judgement at the end of the trial. In his opening address, senior prosecutor Anton Ackerman (SC) told the court that the crimes for which Basson is to be tried cannot be regarded as apartheid crimes since most of the charges relate to Basson's self-enrichment schemes. He conceded however that some of the charges contained in the second volume of the indictment and relating to human rights violations were politically motivated. Ackerman also pointed to Basson's luxury lifestyle implying that it would have been impossible for Basson to maintain such a lifestyle on his civil servant's salary. The prosecution said that evidence would show that Basson's "cover" of a prosperous businessman, used to set up Project Coast, was not a cloak he donned when acting in the interests of the SADF, but in fact a true reflection of his activity while building up a vast empire of business interests and valuable assets both in SA and abroad.

  • Political Violence in the Era of Negotiations and Transition, 1990-1994
    Volume TWO Chapter SEVEN Political Violence in the Era of Negotiations and Transition, 1990-1994 I INTRODUCTION 1 The Commission had considerable success in uncovering violations that took place before 1990. This was not true of the 1990s period. Information before the Commission shows that the nature and pattern of political conflict in this later period changed considerably, particularly in its apparent anonymity. A comparatively smaller number of amnesty applications were received for this period. The investigation and research units of the Commission were also faced with some difficulty in dealing with the events of the more recent past. 2 Two factors dominated the period 1990–94. The first was the process of negotiations aimed at democratic constitutional dispensation. The second was a dramatic escalation in levels of violence in the country, with a consequent increase in the number of gross violations of human rights. 3 The period opened with the public announcement of major political reforms by President FW de Klerk on 2 February 1990 – including the unbanning of the ANC, PAC, SACP and fifty-eight other organisations; the release of political prisoners and provision for all exiles to return home. Mr Nelson Mandela was released on 11 February 1990. The other goals were achieved through a series of bilateral negotiations between the government and the ANC, resulting in the Groote Schuur and Pretoria minutes of May and August 1990 respectively. The latter minute was accompanied by the ANC’s announcement that it had suspended its armed struggle. 4 A long period of ‘talks about talks’ followed – primarily between the government, the ANC and Inkatha – culminating in the December 1991 launch of the Convention for a Democratic South Africa (CODESA).

  • The Cassinga Massacre of Namibian Exiles in 1978 and the Conflicts Between Survivors’ Memories and Testimonies
    ENDURING SUFFERING: THE CASSINGA MASSACRE OF NAMIBIAN EXILES IN 1978 AND THE CONFLICTS BETWEEN SURVIVORS’ MEMORIES AND TESTIMONIES BY VILHO AMUKWAYA SHIGWEDHA A Dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History University of the Western Cape December 2011 Supervisor: Professor Patricia Hayes ABSTRACT During the peak of apartheid, the South African Defence Force (SADF) killed close to a thousand Namibian exiles at Cassinga in southern Angola. This happened on May 4 1978. In recent years, Namibia commemorates this day, nationwide, in remembrance of those killed and disappeared following the Cassinga attack. During each Cassinga anniversary, survivors are modelled into „living testimonies‟ of the Cassinga massacre. Customarily, at every occasion marking this event, a survivor is delegated to unpack, on behalf of other survivors, „memories of Cassinga‟ so that the inexperienced audience understands what happened on that day. Besides survivors‟ testimonies, edited video footage showing, among others, wrecks in the camp, wounded victims laying in hospital beds, an open mass grave with dead bodies, SADF paratroopers purportedly marching in Cassinga is also screened for the audience to witness the agony of that day. Interestingly, the way such presentations are constructed draw challenging questions. For example, how can the visual and oral presentations of the Cassinga violence epitomize actual memories of the Cassinga massacre? How is it possible that such presentations can generate a sense of remembrance against forgetfulness of those who did not experience that traumatic event? When I interviewed a number of survivors (2007 - 2010), they saw no analogy between testimony (visual or oral) and memory. They argued that memory unlike testimony is personal (solid, inexplicable and indescribable).

My name is Allison Brown and I will be your Crisis Director for this committee. I am a sophomore majoring in Biomedical Engineering with a focus in Biochemicals. This is my second time being a Crisis Director, and my fourth time staffing a conference. I have been participating in Model United Nations conferences since high school and have continued doing so ever since I arrived at Penn State. Participating in the Penn State International Affairs and Debate Association has helped to shape my college experience. Even though I am an engineering major, I am passionate about current events, politics, and international relations. This club has allowed me to keep up with my passion, while also keeping with my other passion; biology. I really enjoy being a Crisis Director and I am so excited to do it again! This committee is going to focus on a very serious topic from our world’s past; Apartheid. The members of the Presidents Council during this time were quite the collection of people. It is important during the course of this conference that you remember to be respectful to other delegates (both in and out of character) and to be thoughtful before making decisions or speeches. If you ever feel uncomfortable, please inform myself or the chair, Sneha, and we will address the issue.

  • Constitutional Court of South Africa
    CONSTITUTIONAL COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA Case CCT 30/03 THE STATE Applicant versus WOUTER BASSON Respondent Heard on : 4 and 5 November 2003 Decided on : 10 March 2004 JUDGMENT ACKERMANN J, MADALA J, MOKGORO J, MOSENEKE J, NGCOBO J, and O’REGAN J: [1] The state has applied to this Court for special leave to appeal against a judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeal (the SCA) in terms of rule 20 and, simultaneously, for leave to appeal directly to this Court against a judgment of the High Court in Pretoria (the High Court) in terms of rule 18. The respondent, Dr Wouter Basson, opposes both applications. Background ACKERMANN J et al [2] During 1999, the respondent, an employee of the South African National Defence Force, was charged in the High Court on 67 counts including murder, fraud, conspiracy to commit various crimes and drug offences. All the offences were allegedly committed before 1994 when the respondent worked in a division of the Defence Force called the Civil Co-operation Bureau. [3] During 1997 the accused was arrested, first on charges of contravening the Medicines and Related Substances Control Act, 101 of 1965, and later in the same year on charges of fraud. In relation to both sets of charges, bail hearings were held and the accused was granted bail. In relation to the fraud charges, the bail hearing was held during October and November 1997. The trial on all 67 charges (which now included charges of murder and conspiracy to commit various offences) commenced on 4 October 1999 before Hartzenberg J.
