Because he was part of a terrorist organization. The ANC.

The ANC however only commenced with an "armed struggle" after all attempts at dialogue with the white oligarchy (apartheid regime/dictatorship) were met with state violence and repression.

You could say that the ANC's armed struggle was justified because the government of the time denied people the right to vote on the basis of race.
