South African police jailed nearly 11,000 anti-apartheid activists without charges in 1985, nearly 10 times as many as in the previous year, a monitoring group said in Johannesburg. Another 25,000 were arrested on charges stemming from political violence and rioting, the Detainees’ Parents Support Committee said in its survey of security actions taken last year. Meanwhile, a spokesman for the National Union of Mineworkers said hundreds of black miners have been fired for staging a strike at a gold mine near Johannesburg.
