hgs05. ‘Save Their Lives!’

Johannes Shabangu, Anthony Tsotsobe and David Moise were among the hundreds of young people who left South Africa after the 1976 Soweto student uprising and returned secretly after military training. They were intercepted by the South African Security Forces and sentenced to death. Partly as the result of international protests, their sentences were commuted to life imprisonment.
