During Nelson Mandela's long imprisonment, Winnie Mandela was regarded as the saint of Soweto, the mother of an emerging free South Africa. At this time she was running for a high post in the next South African government, but she first had to face allegations of murder and human rights abuses. She was indeed a victim of harassment and government brutality and she did show incredible toughness and courage as a surrogate for her imprisoned husband. However, she may also have been at least an accessory to torture and murder and there were serious allegations that she is directly responsible for both.
