Gruesome Matola raid remembered, perpetrators still walking free

Durban - Four decades after commandos from the then SA Defence Force illegally entered Mozambique and killed 15 members of Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK), the raid that shocked the southern Africa region was commemorated over the weekend.
So far no one has been held accountable for the brutal raid.
The raid happened on January 30, 1981 and the apartheid army had falsely believed that among those killed on that day was Joe Slovo, the former national chairperson of the SACP.
On Saturday, the ANC issued a statement to remember the painful raid but said nothing about the fact that no one has been prosecuted for the crime.
