It was not possible to include every case brought to the Commission; rather the stories that illustrate particular events, trends and phenomena have been used as windows on the experiences of many people. 2 The primary sources for this report are the statements of individual deponents, as well as submissions by political parties, institutes and professional bodies. Reliance has also been placed on the transcripts of the hearings of the Commission – both human rights violations hearings and amnesty hearings – and on the transcripts of in camera hearings. Documentation from Commission enquiries, such as police dockets, court transcripts, inquest findings, post mortem reports and so on have also been used. 3 In presenting these stories, background details have been used to situate the cases in their proper context. Hence, researchers and writers in the Commission have made use of secondary source material. The reports and publications of research institutes and monitoring bodies, both at home and abroad, have been extensively used. Affidavits collected for other enquiries and investigations have been used where they apply to the cases before the Commission. Published monographs, press reports and ‘unrest reports’ of the South African Police (SAP) have been extensively used. 4 Each regional profile is organised chronologically and divided into four distinct periods: 1960–1975, 1976–1982, 1983–1989 and 1990–1994. These periods correspond roughly with patterns of violations and shifts in the nature of resis- tance and repression in South Africa as identified from the evidence before the Commission. 5 Within each period, violations have largely been considered within one of two groups, namely ‘State and allied groupings’ and ‘Resistance and revolutionary groupings’. While many events and issues defy such divisions and indeed VOLUME 3 CHAPTER 1 PURL: https://www.legal-tools.org/doc/46f8d1/PAGE 1 demonstrate a close interaction of violations by each grouping, certain forms of violations were most strongly associated with a particular grouping. 6 ‘State and allied groupings’ comprises reported violations associated with public order policing, detention and torture, covert actions of the security forces and contra-mobilisation. ‘Resistance and revolutionary groupings’ comprises, for the most part, violations perpetrated by such groupings, including attacks on ‘collaborators’, necklacings, armed actions and sabotage, inter-organisational conflict and so forth. Where the history of violations occurring in the mandate period of the Commission was not amenable to these categories (particularly in the 1990s – the years of political transition), a thematic approach has been used. 7 The evidence before the Commission reveals a complex interaction of events. It has been difficult to separate entirely the stories of victims from the stories of perpetrators. For this reason, there is an inevitable degree of overlap between the regional profiles and the chapters on perpetrators in Volume Two of the report. 8 Findings in the regional profiles focus mainly on events or issues that shaped the nature of gross human rights violations in each region. The regional profiles do not, on the whole, make findings on individual cases. Individual findings are to be found in the summary of statements given to the Commission. Because the findings on individual cases have a bearing on the applications for amnesty still pending, these will become available in full at an appropriate time during the continued work of the Amnesty Committee of the Commission. For the purposes of this report, a full list of the names of persons found by the Commission to be victims appears in Volume Five. 9 It should be emphasised that fuller versions of the profiles are available in the documentary archives of the Commission, as are the full transcripts and audio- visual recordings of all the public hearings convened by the Commission and the original versions of all statements and submissions made to the Commission. To facilitate easy retrieval of primary source material, the reference number for each individual case quoted in the profile has been included in brackets. 10 Finally, every attempt has been made to check and recheck the names published in these reports. If there are errors, please forgive us. VOLUME 3 CHAPTER 1 PURL: https://www.legal-tools.org/doc/46f8d1/PAGE 2 National Statistics Introduction 11 The Human Rights Violations Committee gathered 21 296 statements during the course of its work. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (the Commission) asked all South Africans who had suffered in the political conflicts of the past to come to the Commission and make a statement. In an attempt to reach all sectors of the community, especially those that were hostile to the Commission, it made special appeals through the media and through hearings to ensure that all voices were heard. 12 These statements were analysed by a team of data processors in each of the four offices, who then loaded the details of the violations onto a computerised data- base. These details included the names of the victims, the names of the alleged perpetrators, the date and place of the violation and a description of what happened. Violations reported in the Free State were recorded by the Durban office and the statistics for the two provinces are combined. Violations reported in Kwa-Zulu Natal account for the overwhelming majority. The table below shows the total amount of information gathered by each office: Office State- Violations Gross Number Average Average ments (gross and violations of victims victims per violations taken associated)1 of human statement per victim rights Cape Town 1 780 4 267 3 122 2 350 1.3 1.8 Durban 10 292 19 383 16 803 14 207 1.4 1.4 East London 2 843 6 380 5 460 3 252 1.1 2.0 Johannesburg 6 381 16 666 11 550 8 941 1.4 1.9 Total 21 296 46 696 36 935 28 750 1.4 1.6 1 Gross violations of human rights are: killings, torture, severe ill treatment and abduction. In addition, a number of violations were reported which did not fall into these categories. These were called ‘associated violations’ by the Commission. VOLUME 3 CHAPTER 1 PURL: https://www.legal-tools.org/doc/46f8d1/PAGE 3 13 It should be noted that a statement may describe more than one violation, and that a victim may have suffered more than one violation.2 On average, 140 victims and 160 violations were mentioned in every 100 statements. In total, 46 696 violations involving 28 750 victims were reported to the Commission. 14 Note also that none of these figures includes information from the Amnesty Committee. The work of that committee is perpetrator-focused, and was far from complete at the time of reporting. This volume considers only the violations reported to the Human Rights Violations Committee. 15 After the details were captured, each statement was corroborated by the Investigative Unit and passed to the Human Rights Violations Committee, which made findings on the violations. The tables and analyses which follow are based on 37 942 viola- tions reported by victims who were found by the Committee3 to have suffered a gross violation as defined in the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act. Of these violations, 33 713 are gross violations of human rights.

  • BLACK ISLAM SOUTH AFRICA Religious Territoriality, Conversion
    BLACK ISLAM SOUTH AFRICA Religious Territoriality, Conversion, and the Transgression of Orderly Indigeneity Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades Dr. phil. im Promotionsfach Geographie am Fachbereich Chemie, Pharmazie, Geographie und Geowissenschaften der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz vorgelegt von Matthias Gebauer geb. in Lichtenfels 2019 i Abstract Social alienation and the struggle to belong in the South African society are not only matters of political discourse but touch the practical sphere of everyday life in the respective places of residence. This thesis therefore approaches the entanglements of religion and space within the processes of re-ordering African indigeneity in post-apartheid South Africa. It asks how conversion to Islam constitutes the longing for a post-colonial and post-racialized African self. This study specifically engages with dynamics surrounding Black and Muslim practices and identity politics in formerly demarcated Black African areas. Here, even after the official end of apartheid, spatial racialization and social inequalities persist. Modes of orderings rooted in colonialism and apartheid still define what orderly belonging and African indigeneity mean. Thus, the inhabitants of those spaces find themselves in situations every day in which their habitat continuously ascribes oppression and racialization. The post-1994 promise for equal citizenship seems to be slowly fading, becoming a broken promise, on whose fulfillment the majority of people who were previously—by official definition and demarcation—only granted the right of being a migratory workforce, sojourners in the White spaces, are still waiting. Against this background, this thesis engages with the attempts to reformulate and recreate African indigeneity on the basis of a counter-hegemonic ideology of being Black and Muslim.

  • RELIGIOUS ACTION NETWORK for Justice and Peace in Southern Africa
    RELIGIOUS ACTION NETWORK for justice and peace in southern Africa a project of the American Committee on Africa ONE MORE MASSACRE by Aleah Bacquie "It seemed so absolutely unnecessary. If this is a taste of things to come, then God help us all." -John Hall, Chairperson Peace Committee God help us all indeed. Soldiers firing on unarmed peaceful demonstrators with no warning whatsoever is nothing new under the South African sun. (It was only last month that I wrote to you about the Boipatong Massacre.) Now, twenty-eight more are dead, 200 more wounded. The only fresh, but twisted slant comes from the "Gorbachevian" De Kierk, escort of the "New South Africa". You know the appalling statistics by now, nearly 8,000 people dead due to political violence since the "reformist" De Klerk began his bloody reign of terror, with tens of thousands more wounded, driven from their homes, gripped by hopelessness and fear. Complete denial of any South African governmental responsibility was expected, even though the soldiers who fired were under the command of a South African Defense Force Brigadier on loan to the "bantustan" Ciskei government. The South African government has long contended that the Black "bantustans" are independent governments, although they are not recognized by any other government, including the U.S. However, with hard evidence of government complicity mounting, De Klerk tried a new tactic, blaming the victim. He somehow mustered the gall to assert that the massacre of ANC supporters is the fault of the ANC! According to this disturbed logic, those Blacks who dared to exercise their right of peaceful assembly and protest are to blame because they should have known that Pretoria's puppet, Oupa Gqozo, would fire on the marchers.

  • A Short History of Amabhele
    A Short History of AmaBhele As a clan, amaBhele have a long and vast history, which links them to other various Nguni language-speaking groups who are understood to have once lived in the central African region many centuries ago before they set on a long southward migration until they eventually settled along the east coast of what is now known as South Africa. This discussion serves as a short summary of this vast history. The main emphasis is on the period from the late 1700s and early-to-mid- 1800s when the clan was divided (or got separated) into numerous sections thereafter; and highlights how they were differently affected by the course of history from that period. As is customary with other Nguni clans, amaBhele got their clan name from one particular ‘Bhele’ who lived approximately four centuries ago. Not much information is known about ‘Bhele’ himself - except that the members of “Bhele’s” family later became known as amaBhele, and that they later grew and expanded to become a large clan. It is to the same ‘Bhele’ that abakwaNtshangase (distinct from Ntshangase/Mgazi), abakwaKhuboni and abakwaShabangu, respectively, also trace their descent. The circumstances around which these three above-mentioned sections separated from their parent clan, amaBhele, are not known. It is probably that there are other surnames that also historically derived from amaBhele (or ‘Bhele’). But for the purposes of this brief summary only these three are mentioned at this point because information concerning them is easy to verify and trace through a careful analysis of the information obtained from traditional African oral history pending a more in-depth inquiry.

  • The Indigenous Constitutional System in a Changing South Africa Digby S Koyana Adjunct Professor, Nelson R Mandela School of Law, University of Fort Hare
    The Indigenous Constitutional System in a Changing South Africa Digby S Koyana Adjunct Professor, Nelson R Mandela School of Law, University of Fort Hare 1. MAIN FEATURES OF THE INDIGENOUS CONSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM In the African scenario the state comprises a hierarchy of component jural communities1. In hierarchical order, from the most comprehensive to the smallest, the jural communities are: the empire, the federation of tribes, the tribe, the district or section and the ward. The most common and simplest structure found amongst many peoples was the tribe, which consisted of a number of wards. The comprehensive jural community could be enlarged by the addition of tribes or tribal segments through conquest or voluntary subjugation. It is this way that empires, such as that of Shaka in Natal, were founded2. In such cases, the supreme figure of authority would be the king, and those at the head of the tribes, the chiefs, would be accountable to him. Junior chiefs in charge of wards would in turn be accountable to the chief, and there would naturally be yet more junior “officials”, relatives of the chief of the tribe, who would be in charge of the wards. The tribe itself has been described as “a community or collection of Natives forming a political and social organisation under the government, control and leadership of a chief who is the centre of the national or tribal life”3. The next question relates to the position of the chief as ruler in indigenous constitutional law. In principle the ruler was always a man. There are exceptions such as among the Lobedu tribe, where the ruler has regularly been a woman since 18004.

  • Magistrates Under Apartheid: a Case Study of Professional Ethics and the Politicisation of Justice
    Magistrates Under Apartheid: A case study of professional ethics and the politicisation of justice by Paul Gready & Lazarus Kgalema Research report written for the Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation, August 2000. Paul Gready is from the Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London. Lazarus Kgalema is a former Researcher at the Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation. Funding for the project came from the Economic and Social Research Council in the United Kingdom and CSVR. Thanks to Hugo van der Merwe for editorial comments on the report. The authors of this report welcome comments, corrections and questions. Executive Summary The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) institutional or sector hearings represented an innovative attempt to gain insight into the societal context within which human rights abuses took place under apartheid. This paper is both a response to, and an off-shoot from, one of these hearings, the legal sector hearing held in October 1997. The hearings, like much previous commentary, revealed the extent to which the legal profession became complicit in the implementation of apartheid. Most analysis has focused on the fact that judges declined to appear at the hearings, on the grounds that it would compromise their independence. But magistrates were also largely absent. This was a cause for concern because the majority of South Africans came into contact with the apartheid legal system primarily through magistrates. Magistrates during apartheid were public servants and as a result their independence was significantly compromised. Among the wide powers and jurisdiction they enjoyed, magistrates performed crucial functions in relation to political detainees, including overseeing the complaints and safeguard machinery.

    21 The suppression of political opposition and the extent of violating civil liberties in the erstwhile Ciskei and Transkei bantustans, 1960-1989 Maxwell Z. Shamase 1 Department of History, University of Zululand [email protected] This paper aims at interrogating the nature of political suppression and the extent to which civil liberties were violated in the erstwhile Ciskei and Transkei. Whatever the South African government's reasons, publicly stated or hidden, for encouraging bantustan independence, by the time of Ciskei's independence ceremonies in December 1981 it was clear that the bantustans were also to be used as a more brutal instrument for suppressing opposition. Both Transkei and Ciskei used additional emergency-style laws to silence opposition in the run-up to both self- government and later independence. By the mid-1980s a clear pattern of brutal suppression of opposition had emerged in both bantustans, with South Africa frequently washing its hands of the situation on the grounds that these were 'independent' countries. Both bantustans borrowed repressive South African legislation initially and, in addition, backed this up with emergency-style regulations passed with South African assistance before independence (Proclamation 400 and 413 in Transkei which operated from 1960 until 1977, and Proclamation R252 in Ciskei which operated from 1977 until 1982). The emergency Proclamations 400, 413 and R252 appear to have been retained in the Transkei case and introduced in the Ciskei in order to suppress legal opposition at the time of attainment of self-government status. Police in the bantustans (initially SAP and later the Transkei and Ciskei Police) targeted political opponents rather than criminals, as the SAP did in South Africa.
