Nelson Mandela's 13-year-old great-granddaughter was killed in a car crash after the World Cup concert.
Johannesburg: Nelson Mandela's 13-year-old great-granddaughter was killed in a car crash on the way home from a concert in Soweto on the eve of the World Cup, his office said on Friday.
The Nelson Mandela Foundation said Zenani Mandela died in a one-car accident and no one else was injured. No other details on the crash were immediately available.
Zenani, who celebrated her 13th birthday June 9, was one of the anti-apartheid icon's nine great-grandchildren.
"The family has asked for privacy as they mourn this tragedy," the foundation said in a statement.
