Description: Nolinda Wontota (left) was due to see her father, a Robben Island prisoner, for the first time this Saturday. Then all visiting privileges to the prisoners were withdrawn. Now, with other relatives of prisoners from all over the country, she is waiting to hear the outcome of an urgent application before the Supreme Court to have the ban on visits lifted. With her is her sister Theresa, 17, and elderly heart patient Mrs L. Mafuna who travelled down to Cape Town from Port Elzabeth to see the nephew she regards as her own son.
