DLAMINI, Lephina

Age

Description
An ANC supporter who was shot dead in April 1992 by members of the IFP-supporting Toaster gang in May 1992 in Tembisa, Transvaal.

His friend Tami who was standing next to the window was shot, but escaped death by hiding underneath the table. His mother Lephina entered the room not knowing that an attacker was waiting by the window and that his next shot would be fatal.
The Toasters terrorized the community. They had a predictable route: from the hostel, down the hill, past the filling station where they entered ANC area. On the first of April 1992 one of their victims was Lephina Dlamini.
