South Africans can expect more remains of activists who died in exile to return back to motherland.

South Africans can expect more remains of activists who died in exile to return back to the motherland. This as the National Prosecuting Authority’s Missing Persons Task Team has its eyes on Angola next.“We gather not merely to witness a ceremonial event but to honour a profound and sacred responsibility to bring back home.

This, in a homecoming ceremony at the historic Freedom Park heritage site in Pretoria under the theme “Celebrating the Lives of Our Heroes and Heroines Who Laid Down Their Lives for Our Freedom”. With the success of this repatriation, a key role player in this project, the NPA’s Missing Person Task Team has its eyes on repatriating more, even as far as the challenging Angola site which is home to mass graves.

“It won’t be an easy task, but we will use demining experts where necessary. We have personnel on our team who are the world experts in working on mass graves. One of our colleagues from Argentina who is part of our team worked on recovering all the graves from the mass graves in Yugoslavia and disappeared in Argentina, so we really have the best available skills on our team,” says Madeleine Fullard, Head of Missing Persons Task Team.

The NPA’s Missing Persons Task Team, however, is realistic in its ambitions noting that there is no conflict or war where the body of every single soldier can be recovered, prompting the team to present an alternative to families where they are unable to recover remains.
