Mini, Khayinga and Mkhaba are executed

The state hanged Vuyisile Mini, Wilson Khayinga and Zinakile Mkhaba after their convictions for MK-related activity. The executions were intended to punish and deter resistance, and they brought grief to families, comrades and working-class communities. The event also shows the human cost of the state's criminalisation of anticolonial and anti-apartheid organising.
