of the Inkatha Freedom Party, Zakhele Khumalo, was arrested
on 8 June on 13 counts of murder. Khumalo is the most senior
politician to be arrested since the government ordered a
crackdown on alleged hit squad operations in KwaZulu/Natal.

- Violence an Obstacle to Effective Organisation
in Natal
- Mayibuye, Journal of the African National Congress,
July 1995. While all ANC provinces have been experiencing
organisational problems, the violence in KwaZulu/Natal has
proved an extra burden for the ANC there. Fuelled by the
struggle for power of Inkatha, the violence has claimed the
lives of over 20,000 people since 1984.
- Constitutional wrangle in KwaZulu/Natal
- Mayibuye, Vol. 6, no. 6, October 1995. The KwaZulu/Natal

constitution for KwaZulu/Natal, the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP)
has abandoned any pretence at democratic behaviour or
reconciliation.
