On 25 August 1993, Amy Elizabeth Biehl (a young American student) drove into Gugulethu to drop off some friends. She was stoned and stabbed to death by a mob of students, some of whom were members returning from a PASO meeting.
After this killing, Gugulethu convened an historic peace march, joined by people from all over Cape Town and elsewhere. This matter was brought before the Truth and Reconciliation Commission under Bishop Desmond Tutu, and Amy's killers were granted amnesty.
