sion by the Government of South Africa against op-
ponen ts of apartheid and of ill-treatment and torture
of detainees and political prisoners,

Strongly convinced that the release of leaders of the
oppressed people of South Africa and other opponents
of apartheid from imprisonment and other restrictions
is essential for a• peaceful solution of the grave situation
in South Africa,
1. Condemns the failure of the Government of
South Africa to comply with the repeated requests of
the General Assembly and the Security Council for the
release of all persons imprisoned, interned or otherwise
restricted for their opposition to apartheid;
2. Again calls upon the Government of South Africa
to grant forthwith unconditional release to all such
persons;
3. Appeals to all Governments, organizations and
individuals to undertake more vigorous and concerted
action to publicize and support the legitimate cause of
all those persecuted in South Africa for their opposi
tion to apartheid and racial discrimination.
