Special Report Transcript Episode 20, Section 5, Time 28:00During the 1980s the township Chesterville, south of Durban, was UDF territory. One of the people that mobilized the community was Thandi Memela. She motivated the youth, including her own son, to join the UDF and was involved in getting people out of the country and bringing in weapons. But things turned sour. The UDF started harassing other people who did not want to join in their activities. One of their victims was Sylvia Mbongwa. They petrol bombed her house and attacked her, but her son, who was staying in the outbuilding, chased them away with a toy gun.
