The TRC's Amnesty Committee is preparing to resume hearing the amnesty applications of five former security policemen on Tuesday 11 March 1997 in Cape Town.
The hearings have been delayed early this week due to a fire in the venue in Pretoria. An alternative venue was found for the rest of the week until today.
The Committee hopes to finish the public hearings on the five policemen by Thursday next week.
The hearings will start at 09h00am on the 10th floor of our Cape Town offices at 106 Adderley Street. Members of the public are welcome and will be allocated seats on a first come first served basis.
Media facilities will be provided on the 7th floor. All members of the media should identify themselves with valid presscards at the entrance.
