The purpose of this document of UN. Security Council Resolution 134, April 1, 1960 was to condemn South Africa's actions in the Sharpeville massacre

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The document itself tells about the purpose as it states about the Sharpeville massacre by mentioning the situation arisen from the mass killings happened in the massacre. The case where unarmed demonstrator of peace were killed due to the racial differences and their separation in South African Union.

The document then addresses the problem and resolves for the same as a result of making charter by United Nation in response to the letter received from twenty nine members who are in concern for the massacre. It takes into account and recognizes, deplores and call upon the government several measures, and requests the Secretary General.
