Tsafendas had a history of mental illness and had become increasingly agitated and paranoid in the weeks leading up to the assassination. Verwoerd was a controversial figure in South Africa and was widely reviled by opponents of the country's system of racial segregation, known as apartheid. He was a strong advocate for the policy and implemented a number of measures to reinforce it during his time in office. His assassination was widely condemned and sparked a period of political instability in the country.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Tendai Donald"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Hendrik Verwoerd"},{"right":"no","answer":"Gavrilo Princip"},{"right":"no","answer":"Robert Mugabe"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":19,"title":"History","slug":"history"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1413,"title":"Assassinations in the 20th Century","slug":"assassinations-in-the-20th-century"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/6619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1385"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6619"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=6619"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=6619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
