According to a report on the IoL site, the record was released minus pages 114 to 175, or the whole of an affidavit made in camera by Masetlha. Also not publicly disclosed were pages 198 to 209 and 330 to 341, or the whole of a report by the Inspector-General of intelligence on the legality of a surveillance operation. Intelligence Minister Ronnie Kasrils and President Thabo Mbeki objected to the public disclosure of the documents after an interim ruling last week that the entire record be made public.
