Original Note:
"Necklacing" as a practice was condemned by the ANC, and Nelson Mandela was in prison for the entirety of the 1980s when the practice became more popular. Mandela did not "popularize" necklacing and there is no evidence he condoned or even tacitly supported it. https://www.hrw.org/reports/1991/southafrica1/6.htm
