Nomgidi Martha Madliwa
She lost her home in Katlehong, Transvaal, in an arson attack on 25 May 1993. She was later stabbed and injured while seeking shelter elsewhere in Katlehong. Ms Madliwa`s home was reportedly attacked by IFP supporters because she is Xhosa-speaking and was assumed to be an ANC supporter. At least six houses in the vicinity were burnt that day, days after an ANC march past a Tokoza hostel precipitated a dramatic escalation of conflict on the East Rand resulting in at least eighty deaths over the following weeks.
