A South African court on Tuesday ordered the return of the remains of three of Nelson Mandela’s children to his ancestral village, following a bitter family feud linked to the eventual burial site of the ailing anti-apartheid hero.
A judge in the southern city of Mthatha ordered Mandela’s eldest grandson Mandla to transfer the remains by 3:00 pm (1300 GMT) on Wednesday. Mandla allegedly moved the graves without the rest of the family’s consent in 2011.
