South Africa to hold inquiry on alleged hampering of apartheid prosecutions
Briefly

In response to a court case by 25 survivors and victims of apartheid crimes, President Cyril Ramaphosa has initiated an inquiry into the actions of previous ANC-led governments. This inquiry aims to investigate allegations that these governments intentionally obstructed probes into apartheid-era crimes, an issue families have sought justice for over decades. The inquiry follows the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's findings, which highlighted failures in investigating serious crimes from the apartheid era. Ramaphosa acknowledges the long-standing frustration of victims' families who demand accountability and repair for past injustices.
President Cyril Ramaphosa has ordered an inquiry to establish whether previous governments led by the ANC intentionally blocked investigations of apartheid-era crimes.
