Eugene Venter was a member of the South African Intelligence service (N.I.S.), involved in planning violent attacks on American college campuses, in order to discredit anti-apartheid student groups. In January 1983, he intended to kill Reuben Ncgobo, but is captured and interrogated by Philip and Elizabeth. When he yields no useful information, Reuben kills him by "necklacing", burning him alive.
