DURBAN - A South African state attorney has given notice that he plans to reopen investigations into a attack allegedly ordered by senior members of the ANC.

The case involves Mr Robert McBride, then a guerrilla and now a civil servant, who was convicted of murder and sentenced to death for planting a bomb in Durban in 1986 that killed three white civilians. His sentence was commuted to life in jail and he was later freed.
