World IN BRIEF : SOUTH AFRICA : Zulu Princess’ Body Found in Soccer Field

The body of a Zulu princess who was hacked and stabbed to death has been found on the grounds of a workers’ dormitory controlled by the Zulu nationalist Inkatha Freedom Party. Princess Nonhlanhla Zulu, 35, disappeared during a gang attack on a royal residence in KwaMashu township near Durban. Her body was found in a soccer field at the workers’ dormitory, police said. King Goodwill Zwelithini broke with Inkatha leader Mangosuthu Buthelezi in 1994, and tension between the Zulu royal family and Inkatha has escalated since then. One of Zwelithini’s five wives and a daughter were seriously injured in the attack by a gang of men armed with clubs, knives and guns. Officials of the African National Congress blamed Inkatha for the attack. But Inkatha denied it was responsible and blamed the attack on criminals.
