Unrest in Duduza Township after political funeral

A man kicks away a tear gas canister fired by South African Riot policemen during rioting which broke out in Duduza township on 18 May 1985. People said the unrest was provoked by the police who fired tear gas at some of the thousands of people returning from the funeral of a young unrest victim. Later police fired rubber bullets to disperse groups of stonethrowers.
