SA police 'lied over mine deaths'
A government commission investigating the fatal shooting of 34 striking miners by South African police at the Marikana mine said the police force has lied, withheld documents and apparently doctored other papers.
In a statement, the Marikana commission said it had to search computer hard drives of officers to discover documents about the 2012 shootings that shocked South Africa and recalled the worst excesses of the apartheid era.
