Information (identification) needed - Transkei Prisons Medal.

[Marcon1]

Hiya,

 

I recently purchased this medal from Transkei.

 

It has the silver hallmark S925 Q S.A.M. (= 1990) and named to: A.M.N. MDLETYE P/59 - MAJ/GEN.

Who can tell me more about this person, I tried googling him but no result.

Also, as you can see, there is no ribbon.

Does anyone know what the ribbon should look like (a picture of this medal with the correct medal would be very usefull).

According to the limited information I have on Transkei Prison Medals the 'For Faithfull Service' medal was issued for 35 years, 30 years, 20 years, 18 years (bronze) and 10 years (bronze).

But which one is this for - 35y, 30y or 20years ??

 

 

Any help would be appreciated.
