The inquest into the tragic deaths of 21 young patrons at Enyobeni Tavern in June 2022 has brought into sharp focus a web of failures and blame-shifting between the South African Police Service (SAPS) and the Eastern Cape Liquor Board (ECLB).
The tragedy, which unfolded in Scenery Park, East London, has sparked calls for accountability from regulatory authorities whose inaction may have played a role in the devastating loss of life.
