Judge Daniel Thulare is expected to hand down judgment in the reopened inquest of Haron at the Western Cape High Court on 9 October.
The Foundation for Human Rights spokesperson Lindiwe Sithole said they are waiting for the upcoming inquest judgment with “a profound sense of hope and anticipation.”
Haron, a political activist and Imam at Cape Town’s Stegman Road Mosque, was arrested on 28 May 1969 under the Terrorism Act, held in solitary confinement for 123 days, and subjected to near-daily interrogations.Ronald Lamola Imam Haron’s children, Fatiema Haron-Masoet, Muhammed Haron, and Shamela Shamis, gave testimony at the reopened inquest. So did former political detainees, expert witnesses, and a former police officer.
According to Dr Naidoo, Haron’s injuries suggested he had been kicked and violently trampled while on the floor in the days leading up to his death. Similarly, pathologist Dr Molefe concluded that Imam Haron’s bruises were significant; and contributed to the cause of death.
