South Africa charges Malan and 19 in 1987 massacre
Prosecutors in Durban formalize charges against former defense minister Magnus Malan and 19 others for 13 killings in 1987. The indictment also implicates Mangosuthu Buthelezi as a collaborator in creating a paratrooper style unit blamed for the massacre but he faces no charges. The case aims to prove long standing claims that the apartheid regime fueled Inkatha and ANC tensions to preserve power.
