Scope and content
After T Kortman was shot by the Police, the Chief Magistrate of Kempton Park refused permission for the Metal and Allied Workers Union to hold a mass funeral, on the basis of possible public violence. On behalf of the Metal and Allied Workers Union and Mahlangu (Kortman's stepfather) the LRC brought an urgent application to overturn this decision.
