Muzi Gwenya
Was detained in Moroka, Soweto, Johannesburg, during January 1986 on suspicion of arson and murder. After his brother was killed, a revenge attack led to the death of an old woman suspected of instigating the killing of his brother. Mr Ngwenya and his sisters were all detained, and tortured into making a false confession about the woman’s death. He was eventually sentenced to three and a half years’ imprisonment which was suspended.
