Bophuthatswana and Ciskei tribal 'homelands' pulled out of democracy talks

PRETORIA (AFP) - The Bophuthatswana and Ciskei tribal 'homelands' yesterday pulled out of South Africa's democracy talks and, with three other conservative groups, launched a political movement called the Freedom Alliance. The alliance, which includes the Inkatha leader, Mangosuthu Buthelezi and the Conservative Party leader, Ferdi Hartzenberg, said a 'single united negotiating team' would negotiate with other parties.
