Eugene de Kock : Part 8

Stone Sizane and me in my bedroom 
In-between the calls I was getting from JK asking how much money we had, I also got a call from him telling me to close the group.  I told him “not a fucking chance, unless I hear it out the mouth of Eugene de Kock myself”.   On the 2 Feb 2015, I received a Statement of Account from Julian Knight and Associates Inc; titled : EUGENE DE KCOK. MINISTER OF CORRECTIONAL SERVICES & OTHER CASE ( & OTHER CASE was Clive Derby-Lewis) NO:9572/13I.   The account was for an amount of R614 434.69.  However, we had raised R20 000.00 which was given to JK by Miempie and General van der Merwe coughed up R30 000.00 leaving a total amount outstanding at R564 434.69.  JK charged EdK R1500.00 per hour consultation. For example: Consultation at Pretoria Central on signature of Affidavit 11h00 – 12h00 was R1750.00.  This was a complete shock to me because I was led to believe that JK was taking on the case of Eugene and he would do it pro deo (for nothing) because of the high profile nature of the case, he would be promoting his own business due to the media it would attract.   The statement could only have been drawn up after I asked for a copy so that I could discuss the matter with those who were holding the money.   The entire statement seems to me to have been put together for my benefit and to get money out of the group.   There was never any agreement that money would be paid.  The statement is addressed to Eugene de Kock (as though EdK had any money left by that stage).
JK obviously asked his secretary to email the documents to me and unbeknown to anyone, the secretary sent me a document that I should never have seen.   JK was representing Clive Derby-Lewis and Eugene de Kock at the same time and the costs for Derby-Lewis were muddled up with that of EdK in JK’s books.   I do not have to say much on that issue.  You can work it out for yourselves – but how could he have been working for both of them at the same time?  Where were his priorities?  And why were we to foot the bill for Clive Derby-Lewis?
Then I got a letter that I should not have got either:  It was a letter written by Julian Knight to TM dated 2 Feb 2015 (the man who lied that he had been visiting EdK since he was incarcerated).  TM led the media to believe that he was footing the bills and he was doing all the visits from the time EdK went into prison.  This is a blatant lie.  And why was the letter addressed to JK? The letter reads:
Dear Sir
EUGENE DE KOCK/MINISTER OF CORRECTIONAL SERVICES & OTHER: CASE NO. 58500/14
We refer to the above matter and enclose herewith our amended Statement of Account which reflects R30 000.00 received from client (what fucking client?) as well as the R20 000,00 donation that was received from General Van Der (sic) Merwe.  
These accounts must be factored into the writer’s statement of Account.  We confirm your advices that the amount of money raised on behalf of Mr De Kock will no way near cover the entirety of the Bill.  (No Ja – he knew so much)
It is the writer’s suggestion that once we are in receipt of amount that has been collect, (sic) the writer together with Adv. Du Plessis SC will come to an arrangement relating to how the monies be disbursed.  (Adv. Du Plesiss SC did the work for nothing and never wanted a penny.  It was pro deo)
We look forward to hearing from you in the above regard at your earliest convenience.
Yours faithfully
Julian Knight
The raid and seizure of Eugene were still under the table.  Our tolerance was reaching peak levels and I was being cautioned to calm down.  That was impossible.  I can keep a secret, but I can’t keep quiet about the truth.  Eugene was institutionalized and vulnerable, being used by the various law enforcement officials to help with apartheid crimes and finding evidence and his true friends were being kept out of the way by TM taking charge of who visited him and when.    It concerned me that his true friends were and still are, outside his circle and have no privy to his health and welfare.   I still feel that he should be given a Presidential Pardon but this will have to be applied for when we get a new president.  The one we have now is just an embarrassment.   When the president changes, I will again start an appeal to get EdK a Presidential Pardon.  I am sure that you will all be with me on that issue.

During this time, I managed to get to see Stone Sizane in my bedroom at home.  While he made no promise of a Presidential Pardon, he did promise to do all he could to facilitate a parole for Eugene.  He kept his word.   TM, PP, and JK were rats and there were one or two other spooks in our group.  JK constantly sent emails to TM asking for money until he called me one day and I told him that TM could not organise a piss up in a brewery and if he wanted some clarity regarding the situation, he had best speak to Ben or to me.  PP wanted something from him, TM has his reasons so that his ego could be polished and JK was milking the system without actually giving a damn about his client.

Eugene de Kock : Part Three

To continue to tell the story, I have to put myself into it.  I was known as MC – Merc Chick.  I don’t remember who gave me that name but it kind of stuck.   As you know, we were constantly looking for money or ways to make money to pay for legal fees for Eugene – and of course, we flooded the president’s office (I refuse to use capital letters now) with reams of paper.  I phoned that office so many times that all six secretaries recognised my name and would say “Hello Dianne, are you phoning about de Kock again?”   And of course, I would answer, “As long as Eugene de Kock is in prison I will not stop phoning you”.   I did get one letter and one call from that office – The office of the Presidency!   Well, the letter was a typical political letter saying a lot of words that said nothing. The phone call I received was a little more funny.  “Please Dianne, tell your people to stop sending emails because we have to print out every one and we don’t have paper”.  They had boxes and boxes of our emails.  Thank you to everyone who helped me with that exercise. 
While I am on the subject of the president, let me mention to you that I still feel that Eugene de Kock deserves a Presidential Pardon.  Asking the eejit we have is pointless, but as soon as we have another one, I would like you to help me appeal for a Presidential Pardon for Eugene.  I think that this would be one good reason for keeping this group going. 
Table Mountain was an unreliable person – he never, ever did what he promised to do and the 14 t-shirts that were to be signed by EdK and given to Hendrik Fouche to auction never moved from TM’s place.  He saw EdK many times, he made many promises to me to get the shirts signed, but never did a thing.  But I soon learned how to use him to my advantage – I allowed him to think I was a crazy mad fool and I played that game with him.   And when PP could not get to EdK via me, she went to him.  And he took her in.  You have obviously gathered by now that I had no time for those two. 
To cut a long story short, I eventually managed to get Hannelie to collect the shirts from TM and to keep them with her for when she could see him, but in the meantime, Hendrik had paid for two of the shirts and it was weighing me down that I was not seeing this situation to an end.  Two of the shirts belonged to Hendrik and the next 12 shirts were going to be auctioned so that Eugene would have money when he came out of prison – at least he would have had an income for the first 12 months via the shirts.   Ben Kruger paid for the shirts and also paid for the initial lot of bumper stickers.  I paid for an additional 14 shirts that I had sent by courier to Hendrik.  I know that everyone thought that James was doing such a great job of posting the bumper stickers with his own money … I raise my eyebrows because I was doing that all along, including posting shirts around the country.  And as I am sure you know, I slide through life on the smell of an oil rag – where the money came from for me to do those things the good Lord only knows.

Remember the money for the next instalment is going to be very interesting.   About 8 months before the closure of the group I received a phone call from JK. (If you don’t know who the people are that I mention by their nicknames, then please read the other sections in sequence; part 1, then part 2 and so on)   The question of money came up – how much money did the group have to give him (JK).   Obviously TM had informed JK of how dim I was so JK also treated me like a dimwit, but that suited the agenda.  And it paid off big time.  I was becoming an excellent agent and would have made a fantastic Mata Hari in a previous life.

Eugene de Kock - Part Two

I know the reason why he has not contacted his friends.  I know the reason why he has not made an appearance to many of those he knows on our Free Eugene de Kock page.  And I am going to tell you everything I know over the next couple of posts about what went down before his actual release.  Some of the things I am going to tell you may just land me in hot water, but then again, I seem to continuously be in shit street.
During the time when we were still trying to get Eugene out, we had given some of the main players nicknames that only a few of us know about.  One of the main players, as you all know, was Kopdoek.  Everyone knew him by that name, but I gave him another name which was TM.  TM stood for Table Mountain because his ego was that big.  This is how we communicated – via inbox and by using nicknames.  Inbox was also the safest way to communicate that the authorities would not know what we were up to.  But even then, to make sure that the intelligence fellows were not getting our info, we wrote our inbox messages without punctuation – punctuation helps them to decode messages.    Then there was Julian Knight … more about him later.  And then there was the Jansen woman (who ultimately wrote a pathetic, in my view, book about Eugene).  She wanted me to organise a trip to visit him and when I refused, she found another way of getting to him.  Long before she did a thing, I knew what she was up to.  I called her PP for plastic p$%s.  And if you are honest and you have done the research, you will see just how pathetic that book of hers was – she gathered stuff from google, had a few picnics with him and hallelujah – an accomplished writer.  What kak!   She gave nothing  - she took from him.  And because of that, I have no time for her, as she has no time for me.  The feelings are mutual. 

 Ben Kruger had his spies, I had my spies and James Marx … I never trusted him so shared nothing with him.    It was always a good laugh when Ben and I shared something with one another – and then we would find that we both had the same information and then we could take it as being the truth.  If our information differed, the information was unreliable.

Eugene de Kock - Part One

 I said that I would not write a thing about Eugene once he was out – I have changed my mind.  I am going to tell you what went down over the months before his release.

One of the first things I am going to tell you is why we changed the name of Eugene’s page so fast. In fact, James Marx was so de moer in with me for doing what I was told to do and I could not tell him why…he left the group and blocked me as a friend. Big deal ~ I did not cry over that one.  I have no time for adult cry-babies.   There were far more important things at stake than being concerned with someone’s ego.  And there have been very big egos in the story of Eugene de Kock.   There was a lot of information that we knew and a lot of things going down behind the scenes that we could not divulge to the public because we had spies and double-agents in the group.  Those we knew … we played into their hands, knowing what we were doing.  Oh!  The glory of the Art of War.  We kept our secrets, played our games and now they still think he may be the centre of a white revolution. Hence all the media regarding him being asked to speak at functions and being asked to leave before entering the door.  They are looking at the wrong person.  I am the dangerous one to watch.  I am the centre of the white revolution, the black revolution, the mixed race revolution and now also the rat revolution.    Over the next couple of posts, I am going to reveal to you what went down.  I hope you will stay with me for the ride.

Revenge will not bring anyone back from the dead !!

Eugene de Kock 
I am so sick and tired of hearing about how many thousands of people Eugene de Kock killed and how evil he was. In the context of the time, it was war.  A war is fought on two sides (normally) - one group against another; one group trying to get something more from another group and the other group defending what they have.  

There were no innocent parties and there were no innocent parties.  We were all responsible.  

The war is over.   Revenge will not bring anyone back from the dead.  The fortunate soldiers were welcomed home by their families.  And the land is still struggling to get onto its feet.

Keeping Eugene de Kock in prison is not only unlawful (in my opinion, and which you would agree with if you have followed his story with an open mind) with reference to his but it is also morally corrupt decision.  It certainly is not equality before the law for all.  The only obvious reasons that he is still in prison are:
  • Ø  Incompetent officials of the Department of Correctional Services
  • Ø  Incompetence or indifference from the past and present  Ministers of the Department of Correctional services
  • Ø  Eugene de Kock is being used as a political football for an as yet, unknown modus operandi
  • Ø  Keeping him in prison is keeping those who are also guilty safe from prosecution
  • Ø  Lack of finances for legal applications to overturn unfair decisions

The only right thing to do, given the circumstances of the past and the present, and excusing the mistakes made by the TRC, as well as those who were involved in his prosecution, is a Presidential Pardon.  Eugene de Kock was singled out and was not given the opportunity of being treated equally before the law.   President Zuma can by-pass all the red tape and free this man in 5 minutes. 

I appeal to President Zuma to give Eugene de Kock a Presidential Pardon on the grounds of compassion, and in a spirit of reconciliation.  

Let the past stay in the past and let us move forward to a brighter future by doing the right thing today.
