An academic study has shown that the province of KwaZulu-Natal has a culture of blood-letting mainly for positions in social and political structures. This is according to Professor Paulus Zulu from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. He testified before the Moerane Commission. Traditional leadership in the province also called for a cleansing ceremony to rid the province of violence.
