This report is submitted to the General Assemb1y in accordance with the request contained in resolution 3151 D (XXVIII) adopted by the General Assembly on 14 December 1973. Accept, Sir, the assurances of my highest consideration. (Signed) Edwin Ogebe OGBU Chairman of the Special Comrndttee on Apartheid His Exce11ency Mr. Kurt Waldheim Secretary-General of the United Nations New York -v- -".'-. ';;, l. INTRODUCTION l. Ever since the establishment of the United Nations, the successive South African Governments have repeatedly and flagrantly violated the provisions of the United Nations Charter, notably those concerning human rights and non-discrimination. They have also ignored and defied numerous resolutions of the Security Council and the General Assembly calling for an end to racial discrimination and apartheid, for the liberation OI all persone imprisoned or restricted for their opposition to apartheid, and for a peaceful solution based on the full application of human rights and fundamental freedoms to the inhabitants of the country as a whole. 2. The Security Council and the General Assembly have repeatedly reminded the South African Government that its policies and actions were in violation of the Charter and its obligations as a Member of the United Nations. They have also recognized that these policies and actions have created a situation which constitutes a grave danger to international peace and security. They have adopted a series of measures against South Africa to secure an end to apartheid. The General Assembly has also given a strong warning to the South African régime by rejecting the credentials of its delegation at recent sessions. 3. Moreover, in recent years, the white minority South African Government has, in violation of the principIes of the Charter and the :..'esolutions of the General Assembly and the Security Council, continued illegally to occupy the Territory of Namibia, for which the United Nations has assumed direct responsibility. Moreover, the régime has subjected the people of that Territory to apartheid and brutal repression. It has, in defiance of the United Nations, sent its forces into Southern Rhodesia and assisted the illegal racist minority régime in that Territory against which the Security Council hás adopted sanctions under Chapter VII of the Charter. 4. The present report outlines many violations of the prov~s~ons of the United Nations Charter by the white minority South African Government, as well as those of the numerous appeals of the Security Council and the General Assembly, during the quarter century of United Nations consideration of apartheid in South Africa. II. VIOLATIONS OF THE CHARTER 5. Racial discrimination pervades the constitution, laws and regulations of South Africa. The successive Governments of South Africa have attempted to aggravate and entrench such discrimination, instead of putting an end to it as required by the United Nations Charter, despite repeated reminders by the principal organs of the United Nations. 6. The principIe of non-discrimination forms a fundamental part of the United Nations Charter and, as noted by the United Nations Commission on tlle Racial Situation in the Union of South Africa in 1955, is embodied in the very spirit of the Charter. -1- k~.¡ \ qas;;q un $20......4.. 7 7'~ This principIe is embodied in the Preamble 1/ of the United. Nations Charter reaffirming "fai.th in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women ••• I~ • 8. Chapter I, Article 1, of the Charter, states that one of the pr-Lnc í.pak purposes of the United Ne.tions is "to achieve international co-operation in ••• promoting and encouraging respect for hunlan rights and for fundamental freedoms íor all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion!l~ 9. Article 13 suaties that "the General Assembly shall initiate studies and make recommendations for the purpose of .•• assisting in the realization oí human rights and fundamental freedoms tor all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion". 10. Article 55 declar~s that "the United Nations shall promote .". universal .~ I respect for, and observance of, human rights a~d fundamental freedoms for all wi trml~t distinction as to rece , sex, language, or religion". 11. 80uth Africa has also contravened the solemn pledge in Pxtiele 56 of the Charter that Hall members pledge themselves te take joint and sepa.rate aetion in co-operation with the Organization for the aehievement oí" the purposes set forth in 11 Article 55 • Article 2, paragraph 4, provides that "all members Elhall refrain in their international relations fram the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity' ••• oí any State". 12. South Afriea has repeatedly threatened the territorial integrity of independent African StatBs on the ground that they had, assisted opponents of apartheid, though. such assistance has been provided in response to appeals by United Nations organs* It sent its security forces into Southern Rhedesia in 1967 in def'iance oí the administering Power (the United. Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.), as well as of the United Nations. It has continued illegally to cccupy the Territory of Namibia after the termination of its mandate by the General Assembly in 1966 and threatened to resist by force any attempts to end. its illegal administration. 13. South Africa is also in violation oí its obligation under Article 2, par-agraph 5, which states that "all Members .•• shall refrain from giving assistance te any state against whieh the United Nations is taking preventive or "4:./ It is iro?lic that Field ~arshal Smuts, then head of the Government of South Africa, had himself pressed for tihe inclusion of this important elause in the Charter. DurIng ··jha debates at Lhe United Nations Conference at San Francisco in 1945, he stated: .' . "I would suggest that the Charter should contain at its very outset and in its preamble, a deelaration of human rights and of the connnon faith which has sustained the Allied peoples in their bitter and prolonged struggle for the vindication of t.hose rights ando that fa:~th.

  • Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa Report Volume TWO Chapter ONE National Overview
    VOLUME TWO Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa Report Volume TWO Chapter ONE National Overview I PREFACE 1 This chapter seeks to provide an overview of the context in which conflict developed and gross violations of human rights occurred. Other chapters in this volume focus specifically on the nature and extent of violations committed by the major role-players throughout the mandate period. The volume focuses specifically on the perpetrators of gross violations of human rights and attempts to understand patterns of abuse, forms of gross violations of human rights, and authorisation of and accountability for them. Sources 2 In identifying the principal organisations and individuals responsible for gross viola- tions of human rights in its mandate period, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (the Commission) had a vast range of information at its disposal. In addition to court records and press reports, it received over 21 000 statements from individuals alleg- ing that they were victims of human rights abuses and 7 124 from people requesting amnesty for acts they committed, authorised or failed to prevent. In addition, the Commission received submissions from the former State President, Mr P W Botha, political parties, a variety of civil institutions and organisations, the armed forces and other interested parties. All these submissions were seriously considered by the Commission. Through its power to subpoena witnesses, the Commission was also able to gather a considerable amount of information in section 29 and other public hearings. 3 While the Promotion of National Reconciliation and Unity Act (the Act) gave the Commission free access to whatever state archives and documents it required, in practice, access to the holdings of various security agencies was difficult, if not impossible, with the exception of the National Archives.

Nexus between Intelligence Education and Intelligence Training: A South African Perspective Abstract This paper examines the nexus of intelligence education and training from a South African perspective with the focus on current practices in light of the country’s transition towards democracy. A brief overview is provided on the history and development of the South African intelligence community with specific focus on the civilian intelligence services from the period prior 1994 to date (2015). The main focus, however, is on intelligence education that is currently available from training institutions and universities in South Africa as registered with the Department of Higher Education as well as private training institutions on the one hand, and the intelligence training practices within the statutory intelligence environment on the other. To this extent, the relations between academic institutions and the intelligence structures in terms of education and training within South Africa are perused against other practices within the African continent and internationally.

Public sources often provide conflicting information on classified military programs. In some cases we are unable to resolve these discrepancies, in others we have deliberately refrained from doing so to highlight the potential influence of false or misleading information as it appeared over time. In many cases, we are unable to independently verify claims. Hence in reviewing this chronology, readers should take into account the credibility of the sources employed here. Inclusion in this chronology does not necessarily indicate that a particular development is of direct or indirect proliferation significance. Some entries provide international or domestic context for technological development and national policymaking.
