Mandela's Gun Still Buried

Tuesday June 27, 2006
A new search is on to find a gun that Nelson Mandela buried decades ago. Just weeks before his arrest at a farm in Rivonia, South Africa in 1962, Mandela buried a gun on the property. It is believed that during the intervening decades, no one has yet found the gun (a semi-automatic Makarov) and that it remains buried. Bulldozers have been digging around the area; there are high hopes that the gun will be found.
