An Eastern Cape author‘s sensational new whodunit based on the SADF‘s alleged barbaric sex change experiments on gay defence force members hits bookstores on Tuesday.
Hamish Pillay, 29, wrote The Rainbow Has No Pink after learning about the apartheid defence force‘s bizarre projects in which homosexuals and lesbians were apparently forced to change their genders during the 1970s and early 80s.
“I heard about this in my third year history class at Rhodes University four years ago and I thought if I had never heard about this before, how many others also don‘t know about it?” said Pillay, an East London marketing consultant.
