(27 Jan 1986) QUOTE REF SOUTH AFRICA: Bishop Desmond Tutu said on 27 January that
SYND more innocent people are bound to die as long as apartheid
5.3.86 exists. Speaking at a news conference in Johannesburg just
LN117492 after his return from visiting the US, Tutu countered
criticism of his statements in the US, saying he stood by
every word he had said. Tutu said the South African
government were trying to make him a scapegoat in the same
way as it had done with banning TV crews from trouble spots
and accusing the former Lesotho government of harbouring
African National Congress guerrillas.
