Funeral for Amanda Fanisa, a 6 month old baby who was killed by teargas
Crossroads residents bury six-month-old Amanda Fanisa, asphyxiated by tear gas fired during police action in Crossroads, Cape Town. The South African security forces used tear gas as a standard means of "crowd control". Tear gas can be lethal, and it is especially dangerous when inhaled by young children.
