Counsel consulted with the accused on the 12th September, and it transpired there that accused numbers 1, 2 and 3 had made statements to the police.

The matter came up for hearing on the 20th September, 1977 in the Magistrate's Court, Protea, Soweto , before Magistrate Mr T.J.J. Louw. Evidence was led and the matter was postponed to 9th November, 1977 to Johannesburg Court for further evidence.

We were instructed in this matter when the accused were already found guilty in this matter.

The accused were charged in terms of government notice no 549 of government gazette number 5494 of 31st March, 1977 read with Section 2 (3) of the Riotous Assemblies Act, no 17 of 19 56 in that they attended a prohibited gathering.

The trial in fact had taken place on the 15th August, 1977 when the accused pleaded not guilty and were subsequently convicted as charged.

The accused were school boys both aged 19 years at the

The matter came up for sentence on the 4th September, 1977 and after a plea in mitigation by Counsel the sentence imposed on the accused were as follows

The State vs Mike Norton and Others

In this matter we were instructed to act on behalf of:-

1. Michael Norton2. Zubeidah Mayet3. Hoseph Tholoe4. Rebeun Brown5. M. Nkadimeng

The abovementioned five accused were charged together with Zenith Printers Pty Ltd who were represented by Dr Beyers Naude in court.

The essence of the charges against the various accused is that they had produced an undesirable publicationnamely, "The bulletin of the UBJ". There were various alternative counts to the main count, the details of which are set out in the copy of the charge sheet which is sent herein for your information.

Zenith Printers Pty Ltd were separately represented.

We instructed Mr George Bizos who has had vast experience of matters of this nature to act on behalf of the abovementioned five accused.

We may mention that accused number 2, Zubeidah Mayet was charged separately as well for possession of the said bulletin of the UBJ. A photocopy of the indictment relating to her is sent herewith also for your information.

We also send you herewith a co^y for the request for further particulars in this matter.

As you may know a similar matter with regard to the publication of undesirable documents is presently on appeal which affects a certain Mr Sean Moroney who is an officer of the South African Institute of Race Relations.With this in mind we have had detailed discussions with the Prosecution in this matter and he has now agreed that in view of the fact that a similar matter is on appeal that subject to the appeal court findings in this matter this matter should be postponed to the 27th March, 1978. All the parties agreed to this suggestion and the matter has been postponed.

As you know subsequent to the hearing in court the UBJ (Union of Black Journalists) has been delcared a "banned" organisation. We will keep you informed of further developments in this matter hwne it comes to court in March, 1978.

As you know accused number 3, Joseph Tholoe is presently held in terms of Section 6 detention under the Terrorism Act in Pietermaritzburg and accordingly was not present in courtat the hearing.

Wallace Montsisi and others vs Minister of Police and Commissioner of Police

In this matter we were given some startling information by two students, namely Richard Reginald de Villiers who was an ex President of the University of the Witwatersrand and Max Price who is the present SRC President of the University of the Witwatersrand. These two students were in detention at John Vorster Square at the same time as Daniel Montsisi.It appears that while they were in detention with Mr Montsisi they saw that he had been severely assaulted and when they were released from detention themselves they reported these matters to our Mr Chetty who then took it up with them, obtained affidavits also obtained affidavits from the father of Daniel Montsisi and the other persons who were also allegedly assaulted, that is,Paul Langa and A. Moloto. We obtained affidavits from all these persons and our Mr Chetty also made an affidavit with the intention of bringing an application to court to restrain the police from assaulting Daniel Montsisi, Albert Moloto and Paul Langa on the evidence of de Villiers and Price. We consulted Mr David Soggot in this matter and extensive consultations were had with him and with the various deponents to the affidavits.

After the matter had been prepared, Mr Langa was charged and was released from Section 6 detention. We consulted, with him and he confirmed to a large extent the position of Moloto and Montsisi. As you know Daniel Montsisi was the last president of the Soweto Students Representative Council and he had been in Section 6 detention since the 10th June, 1977.

Page 4: Counsel consulted with the accused on the 12th September ... · PDF fileCounsel consulted with the accused on the 12th September, and it transpired there that accused numbers 1, 2

However, due to certain difficulties, we were not able to present the evidence of Price in court and accordingly as Langa had already been released from detention we did not have sufficient grounds to bring the interdict application to court. After deep soulsearching it was decided to abandon the application.

It was felt, because of Mr Montsisi's position, as the last President of the SSRC and because it seems likely that he would be subsequently charged in what appears to be a very serious matter including a number of accused and many witnesses we are given to understand, probably hundreds of witnesses, that we had to ensure that he was not being treated unlawfully by members of the South African police in whose custody he is presently being held. You will see from the papers sent herewith together with all the affidavits the allegations of assault etc by the police to Montsisi.

We send you herewith a number of photocopies of press clippings relating to this matter.

As a result of abandoning this matter we have now concluded this case.

We will send you under separate cover a report dealing with deaths in detention specifically of Dr Nabaoth Ntshuntsha,Philemon Tlouaha, Aaron Khoza , Sydney Maphalala and Mathew M a b e l a n e .

We will also in due course send you a reconciliatory statement for all monies paid to us in the past together with our account herewith in order that we may have a clear picture of the position vis a vis amounts paid in the past, currently due and payable in the future.

As previously mentioned to you there are a number of details which we have not gone into with the various matters concerned herewith and should you require clarification on any of these matters, or require any documentation or proof of accounts etc kindly do not hesitate to contact us when all this will be furnished.

We will supply you in the next two weeks with a further supplementary report dealing with further miscellenous matters which have not been covered in the present report.

We will communicate with you further in due course.

Yours faithfully,

SHUN CHETTY AND COMPANY E n e l .
