lest we forget: Ms Graça Machel told the Commission that she believed that the Malawi government had held a crisis meeting in February 1984, after President Machel had threatened to close off Malawis access to the sea if that country did not cease its aid to RENAMO. The possibility of assassinating Machel was allegedly discussed. According to Ms Machel, who gave moving testimony, this proposal was later put to President Banda. The following week, Banda dispatched his senior officers to South Africa for a meeting with President PW Botha, who sent back a message of solidarity.
