He left South Africa, where he was a student at University of Cape Town (UCT), in 1959, to appear at the UN as a petitioner on the South West Africa issue. To leave, Beukes had to be smuggled out of South Africa in a Volkswagen Beetle. Beukes later earned a scholarship to study in Norway, where he still lived as of 2010. He only returned to Namibia briefly prior to independence in 1989.[1]
