Let authorities handle activist's assassination probe: Minister
Updated | By Khatija Nxedlana
Mineral Resources Minister Mosebenzi Zwane says misunderstandings should not be resolved through violence.

Zwane’s been speaking on the assassination of anti-mining activist, Sikhosiphi Bazooka Radebe in Xolobeni on the Wild Coast late last month.
Radebe was the chairperson of the Amadiba Crisis Committee which has been fighting a proposed open-cast titanium mine in the area.
Speaking in Umzumbe on the KZN south coast, Zwane said senior officials will be sent to the Eastern Cape community to talk with them.
"We are saying to people - let's not quickly judge. We want police to go deeply into the cause of the assassination. If it's related to mining, mining will deal with it. If it's criminal case we will then ask the police to assist us in dealing with that case," he said.
Meanwhile, members of the Amadiba Crisis Committee, Friends of the Earth and other environmental organisations are at this hour meeting at the University of KwaZulu-Natal's Howard College campus.
They are discussing Radebe's death and the escalating violence in the area and neighbouring communities.
