South Africa faces clash over Truth and Reconciliation report
Johannesburg AP The Truth and Reconciliation Commission faces fresh turmoil as the ANC moves to block naming Mandela’s party as a human rights violator and EW de Klerk sues to excise his designation as an accessory after the fact to bombings. Desmond Tutu warns of a pall over the process as the 3,500 page report nears delivery in Pretoria. The panel, chaired by Tutu, has heard victims and perpetrators for years and may grant amnesty or press prosecutions, drawing mixed reactions from whites and blacks alike.
