Slain Activist to be Laid to Rest on Saturday [1]

Wednesday 30 March, 2016 - 14:33

The anti-mining activist murdered in an alleged ‘blue light’ hit last week, will be laid to rest this weekend

The Amadiba Crisis Committee (ACC) says the anti-mining activist, Sikhosiphi ‘Bazooka’ Rhadebe, murdered in an alleged ‘blue light’ hit last week, will be laid to rest this weekend.

His murder‚ which has been linked to a decade of work that he did with the committee in the Wild Coast in opposing open-cast titanium mining by the Australian mining company Mineral Commodity Limited (CMR)‚ drew widespread condemnation.

In a press statement, the ACC says Rhadebe’s funeral will take place at 9h00 on Saturday, 2 April 2016, in Mdatya‚ 20 kilometres from Port Edward in the Amadiba area.
