Jacob Dlamini’s book grapples with the questions born from the album apartheid Security Police called ‘The Terrorist Album’
Jacob Dlamini’s book grapples with the questions born from the album apartheid security police called ‘The Terrorist Album’I cannot show you the photograph with which this story begins. But I can tell you about it. A body torn to pieces lies on a pavement. A man, whose face is the only one visible in the photograph, is on his haunches, leaning into the body on the pavement. His fingers are bloody.
I can tell you about the man whose body lies in pieces on the ground and about the white-shirted man with the bloodied fingers. The dismembered body belonged to Odirile Meshack Maponya; the man in the white shirt was Deon Gouws. Maponya belonged to the military wing of the banned ANC; Gouws was a member of the SA Security Police, an explosives expert attached to a secret unit formally called C1 but known colloquially as Vlakplaas.
