About this ebook
Was she above the law? How did Nelson Mandela try to protect her? What does it mean for politicians’ respect for the rule of law in the democratic era? This exploration of the Mandela United Football Club’s reign of terror throws up questions about the nature of justice and accountability – and how these differ for the ‘important’ and ‘unimportant’ people of this world. Veteran correspondent Fred Bridgland, who covered South Africa for UK newspapers at the time, reinvestigates and delivers explosive new information.
Fred Bridgland
Award-winning foreign correspondent Fred Bridgland began his career reporting in India, Pakistan and the Middle East for Reuters. He was posted to Zambia in 1975 as the agency’s Central Africa correspondent, spending long periods in Angola as it descended into post-colonial civil war. In an international scoop he discovered and revealed exclusively South Africa’s covert 1975-76 invasion of Angola at the behest of Western powers. He was also the Brussels-based Europe correspondent for 'The Scotsman' and later that newspaper’s London-based diplomatic correspondent. He joined the 'Sunday Telegraph' of London in 1989 as its southern Africa correspondent. Bridgland is a graduate of Scotland’s St Andrews University. He lives in Edinburgh.
