Description
A SACTU official, along with three others, were twice targeted for killing, first at the Lion Park Motel and later at the Oasis Motel, Gaborone, during August and September 1987. Both operations, jointly conducted by SADF Special Forces and the Security Branch, failed. The divisional commander of the Western Transvaal Security Branch and five Soweto Security Branch operatives were granted amnesty (AC/1999/0308).
