qweJOHANNESBURG: The mediator in South Africa's Lonmin mine strike warned on Saturday that a police crackdown on workers could worsen the crisis and ignite revolt at other platinum mines.

"I am particularly concerned that government's present action will in fact lead to the worsening of the situation and eventually to a complete revolt across the platinum belt," Anglican Bishop Jo Seoka said in a statement.
