About Robert McBride
Robert McBride is the former chief of the metropolitan police for Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality. During the apartheid era he was a member of Umkhonto we Sizwe, the paramilitary wing of the African National Congress. For his actions against the apartheid regime, he was convicted of terrorism after he carried out a bombing operation against Magoos Bar, a busy Durban night club frequented by apartheid security forces, in an attack that killed three people. This conviction was "for all purposes...deemed not to have taken place" under the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, which recognized that resistance against apartheid was legitimate.
