MORAKE, Senzani Mateu

Age 36

Description
Was beaten with sjamboks , knobkerries and spiked handles on 20 December 1985 in Emagezini, near KwaNdebele, by Imbokodo vigilantes in an attempt to force him to join the group. The Imbokodo were punishing those suspected of supporting an MP in the legislative assembly who was a known opponent of the vigilantes and of independence. The warnings of the tribal authority against incorporation went unheeded, which resulted in violent political conflict during which hundreds of people died or were injured.
