In South Africa, a new inquiry will soon revisit one of the country's most unresolved chapters. On Monday, 10 November, the Khampepe Commission will begin public hearings in Johannesburg to investigate claims of political interference that prevented prosecutions of apartheid-era crimes.

Established by President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier this year, the Commission will examine why cases handed over by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission more than two decades ago were never pursued, despite clear evidence of serious human rights violations.

To unpack the significance of these hearings and what they could mean for victims' families and the justice system, we are joined by Dr Zaid Kimmie, Executive Director of the Foundation for Human Rights, which helped drive the campaign to establish the inquiry.
