hgs07. Save the Moroka Three

Jerry Mosololi, Marcus Motaung and Simon Mogoerane, known as the Moroka Three, were among 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. This pamphlet shows how the case against them relied on confessions made under torture. In spite of an international campaign for their release, the three were executed on 9 June 1983.
