Death of Apartheid era Minister of Police Adriaan Vlok sparks public debate

The death of former Minister of police during apartheid, Adriaan Vlok has generated a debate on the role he played during his tenure at the helm of the South African Police. Vlok who passed away last week, was part of the apartheid leadership that gave commands to juniors to harass and terrorise those who were opposed to the regime. Veteran Editor, Anton Harber describes Vlok's involvement in the atrocities that were committed by the then regime.In the late 1980s some of the worst murders, torture and bombings happened under Vlok's watch. This means he was politically responsible for a lot of worst horrors of the later era of Apartheid.
