Summary:ANC leader Nelson Mandela suspended talks with South Africa's white government on June 21 in anger at the massacre in the Boipatong squatter camp on June 17. Thirty-nine men, women and children were killed in the camp and residents accused mainly Zulu hostel dwellers for the slaughter. Mandela arrived in Boipatong on June 21 to a tumultuous welcome that contrasted sharply with the treatment of P resident F W de Klerk the day before.
