Using .htaccess to redirect only certain non existing url's

I have the following scenario

I have some url's that exist and some url's that do not exist with the following structure

http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/test/sss/test/123 http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/file/asdsa http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/sadas http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/sadsad

What I'm trying to achieve is when any url that contains component/docman/cat_view does not exist it needs to link to the parent url

for example

http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/test/sss/test/123

needs to redirect to

http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports

http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports/file/asdsa

needs to redirect to http://site.co.za/component/docman/cat_view/388-documents-reports

so in other words all urls that contain component/docman/cat_view need to redirect to the url plus the first parameter after docman

CAn this be done using the .htaccess file together with mod rewrite and how if it can?
