IndiaAIFounders — ‘We continue to suffer’: victims of apartheid-era Sharpeville massacre demand compensation

Claim relating to 1960 attack on hundreds of protesters part of wave of litigation over apartheid crimes in South Africa

Abraham Mofokeng joined the march, one of dozens organised nationwide by the Pan Africanist Congress (PAC), a breakaway group from the African National Congress (ANC). “The weather was very nice, the sun was out. You could not have suspected that the day would go so horribly,” said Mofokeng, who was then a 20-year-old factory worker.
