Organisatiegeschiedenis 📅 7 November 1962 📍 Zuid-Afrika

A court sentenced Mandela to five years for incitement and leaving South Africa without a passport. The prosecution treated political organising and international engagement as crimes, while the ANC was prohibited from operating openly. Mandela's imprisonment did not end the movement's underground activity or its efforts to build international support.
