BARNABUS, Cassius Kukie

Age 30

Description
Was shot dead by Basotho paramilitary force members at Qacha’s Nek, Lesotho, close to the Lesotho- Transkei border, in March 1985. He was from East London. Five other APLA members died in this incident, which occurred at a time of increased LLA activity in the area, aimed at destabilising the pro-ANC government of Chief Leabua Jonathan. The Basotho security forces claimed they had mistaken the APLA unit for LLA members. APLA and the LLA were closely connected at the time.
