An inquest into the murders 40 years ago of four anti-apartheid activists by a police hit squad in one of the most notorious atrocities of the apartheid era continues in Cradock today with site visits in the town and its surrounds.
Express reporter Shanti Jafta is on the scene and will be reporting live from Cradock on today’s proceedings.
The inquest commenced in the High Court in Gqeberha on Monday, 2 June.
No one has been brought to justice for the 1985 killings of the so-called Cradock Four, and their families have accused the post-apartheid government of intervening to block the case from going to trial.
Teachers Fort Calata, Matthew Goniwe and Sicelo Mhlauli, along with railway worker Sparrow Mkonto, were abducted and killed while returning home from a political meeting in the southern town of Cradock.
