Marikana mine strike: South Africa court frees miners
About 50 South African miners have been freed after murder charges against them, relating to the deaths of 34 miners shot by police, were dropped.
Prosecutors decided to provisionally set aside charges against 270 striking workers from the Marikana mine following a public outcry.
About 100 miners are expected to be freed on Monday.
Earlier, security guards wounded four people with rubber bullets at a mine near Johannesburg, police said.
