DETAINEES — Additional to previous FOCUS lists
[Table of detainees omitted for brevity]
FURTHER DETENTIONS — Not previously reported in FOCUS
The police are not obliged to disclose the names of people held under the Internal Security Act. They may not become known for many months – if at all. Most of the names below were in a list published by the DPSC of people still in detention at the end of March. All were detained under the Internal Security Act (Section 29 unless otherwise stated) or laws in force in bantustans. Apart from these – all detained between November 1986 and April 1987 – monitoring groups listed at least another 965 names of people detained under the Internal Security Act before November 1986 not published here for lack of space.
