On June 17, 1992, armed supporters of South Africa’s Inkatha Freedom Party attacked Boipatong township, killing about 45 residents, including women and children. Survivors alleged police complicity amid state-sponsored “third force” violence intended to destabilize Black communities during negotiations to end apartheid. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission later found security-force involvement in arming and supporting Inkatha structures, although the precise role of police at Boipatong remained contested in court proceedings.
