Was injured when a pipe bomb planted by members of the AWB exploded on 25 April 1994 at a taxi rank on the corner of Blood Street and Seventh Avenue in Pretoria. Three people were killed and four injured in the blast. During the pre-election period the AWB targeted taxi ranks, bus stops and railway stations, predominantly used by black people, the majority of whom they believed to be ANC supporters, in order to derail the April 1994 elections. Six perpetrators were granted amnesty (AC/1999/0342).
