A lot of questions are being asked after the most recent shootout between police and mineworkers at Marikana. By using various camera angles, including this new footage obtained from Al Jazeera, a miner can be seen firing a hand pistol towards authorities first. It is believed that the miners grew aggressive after they took muti from “a renowned traditional healer, and that they believed it had made them invincible.”

The police then responded by unleashing a volley of fire into the crowd – gunning down 34 people in the process.

The footage can be seen below, but please be warned, it is not for sensitive viewers.
