Paul Sepere LEHLOENGA (28) was sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment by the Klerksdorp Regional Court on 17 July for illegally possessing arms.
Lehloenga was detained at a roadblock in the western Transvaal on 15 November 1987. Two people held with him were released after evidence showed that they had only hitched a lift in his car. Reports did not indicate how long they were kept in custody. In July Lehloenga pleaded guilty to the charge which referred to 16 limpet mines, 40 hand grenades, six pistols, six AK47 rifles and ammunition, all found in the car.
Lehloenga, a Lesotho citizen, was described in one report as an ANC courier.
