1986 Mozambican Tupolev Tu-134 crash
On 19 October 1986, the governmental Tupolev Tu-134 jetliner carrying Mozambican president Samora Machel was on a flight from Mbala, Zambia to the Mozambican capital Maputo, when it crashed west of its destination, at Mbuzini, South Africa. On board were also 43 other occupants; nine passengers and one crew member survived the crash, but President Machel and 33 others died, including ministers and officials of the Mozambican government.
A board of enquiry blamed the captain for failing to react to the Ground Proximity Warning System. Others have claimed that the crew had set the VOR receivers to the wrong frequency, causing them to receive signals from a different airport, or even that a false beacon had been set-up to lure the plane off course. While there was widespread suspicion that the South African government was involved in the crash, no conclusive evidence has emerged.
==Political background==
The crash happened in the last years of South Africa's apartheid government. South Africa at the time funded a large number of rebel organisations in neighbouring countries to avoid having governments hostile to South Africa's political system in neighbouring countries. The country was under heavy sanctions due to the international community's pressure to abolish apartheid. South Africa was also known for an elaborate security apparatus that was highly effective in its work against terrorist and military threats.
