Without a doubt there has been different stories as to how many men were actually accused during the Rivonia Trial. Researchers have numbers between six and the famous '11', After doing my own special research I discovered that Eleven men were accused hence the trial was named "Rivonia Trial '11 '' the men accused were Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu, Denis Golberg, Govan Mbeki, Ahmed Kathrada, Raymond Mhlaba, James Kantor, Elias Motsoaledi, Andrew Mlangeni. 

Lionel "Rusty" Bernstein and James Kantor were also accused then soon acquitted off all charges leaving only eight men to arrest.​
