NGILANYONI, KZN, SOUTH AFRICA, November 25, 2017. After the funeral for ANC activist Lungisani Mnguni, 34, who was killed on Monday November 20th, 2017, men from the community lower the coffin into his grave. Mnguni was gunned down in Camperdown near a school where he was delivering food.

However, since there have been no judicial actions to bring killers to justice, the motives may never be determined with certainty. For now, ANC members are once again dying in the historic Killing Fields of South Africa, two weeks before the party elects its new president. Those in positions of political power live in daily fear. For the families of the murdered, it is not just the trauma of loss and violence that haunts them.
