| Current home affairs minister and leader of the Inkatha Freedom Party, Mangosuthu Buthelezi, is also cited for his role in the violence which claimed 20,000 lives in the area then known as KwaZulu. Rumors that white security officials had blackened their faces and fought alongside soldiers of KwaZulu Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi against ANC-allied forces in the townships poisoned relations between the National Party and the ANC over the next two years. The Secretary-General, in Maputo, Mozambique in mid-October conducted a series of meetings with, among others, South African Foreign Minister Pik Botha, Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi, President of the Inkatha Freedom Party and Chief Minister of Kwazulu, Clarence Makwetu, President of the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC), John Hall, Chairperson of the National Peace Committee, and Anthony Gildenhuys, Chairperson of the National Peace Secretariat. |
