The inquest into the assassination of the Cradock Four—anti-apartheid activists Matthew Goniwe, Fort Calata, Sicelo Mhlauli, and Sparrow Mkhonto—has revealed chilling details about their final moments. Testimony from prominent activist Professor Derrick Swarts highlighted how apartheid police may have bugged the car the four were travelling in before their brutal killing by the security branch in 1985. The court revisited key sites connected to the activists’ lives and deaths, with family members expressing deep pain and frustration over decades of injustice. The ongoing inquest seeks accountability for these historic crimes and their lasting impact on South Africa.
