A supporter of the Afrikaner Resistance Movement (AWB) looks on during a verdict hearing in the murder case of Eugene Terre'blanche at a South African court in Ventersdorp, May 22, 2012. A South African court on Tuesday found black farmhand Chris Mahlangu guilty of murdering Terre'blanche, a white supremacist prominent during the dying years of apartheid, in a wage dispute. Patrick Ndlovu, who was a minor at the time of the April 2010 murder, was found guilty of housebreaking in Ventersdorp, a farming community about 125 km (80 miles) west of Johannesburg where Terre'blanche owned a farm. The case has served as a reminder of the bitter historical divisions in a country now dubbed the "Rainbow Nation" and ruled by the African National Congress, the party that helped end apartheid in 1994.
