The festival began in the bar on top of the koppie, and has been going from strength to strength. |
Police opened an explosion of intense fire – 295 bullets, many aimed from the top of the koppie down at the shapes of men huddling below. |
The 8 kilometre route then heads up the koppie, where there is a small section where the grass has been cut down to accommodate the lack of a formal road. |
It shows police officers walking and shooting far from the initial clash, and the television cameras there, near the rocks of the koppie. |
It is a plot of around 20 acres, with veld surrounding the koppie, which is around 80 metres high. |
At one point in the table-land of the mountain, there was a little koppie of brown stone, which served the double purpose of head-quarters and of a conning tower. |
