On 11 April 1993 SACP leader Chris Hani died after he had been shot four times. His death at the hands of a rightist immigrant sent shock waves throughout the unstable New South Africa. As political parties called for calm, citizens pondered whether the proverbial papaw had now finally struck the fan. And also who was this man whose death created such a grand ruckus? His funeral broadcast on SATV was a memorable event. Emotions ran high at the epic funeral and South Africa was more or less brought to a rather rambling standstill. Suddenly even the most politically ignorant of South Africans now surely had to know and remember the name - Chris Hani.
