Henry George Burt
Was tortured in detention in Pretoria by named members of the SAP on 9 June 1986, and framed for the murder of a policeman to whom he had given a lift. Upon his release he laid criminal charges against one of the perpetrators but he was re-arrested, tried and sentenced to death despite evidence that he had been tortured. The death sentence was later commuted to a prison sentence. The named perpetrator applied for amnesty for the policeman’s killing and for framing Mr Burt and torturing him.
