The People versus the State - The Cradock Four: In June of 1985, Matthew Goniwe, Fort Calata, Sparrow Mkonto and Secelo Mhlauli were arrested just outside of Port Elizabeth, South Africa. On route to Cradock, the four anti-apartheid activists were brutally murdered by the South African security police. The Foundation for Human Rights states that: “In 1987, a first inquest concluded that the Cradock Four had been killed by ‘unknown persons’. Therefore, no one was prosecuted for assault or murder. A second inquest in 1993 found that the Cradock Four’s deaths had been caused by the police. However, no individuals were named responsible. Again, no one was prosecuted. In 1999, six former police officers involved in the Cradock Four’s arrest and murder appeared before the Amnesty Committee of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), but none of them were granted amnesty.” * The initial Inquest from 1987 to 1989, presided over by Magistrate E de Beer, concluded that the Cradock Four were killed by "unknown persons" * A second inquest into the deaths of the Cradock Four was ordered in 1992 by the then President of South Africa, President FW de Klerk. This inquest presided over by Judge Neville Zietsman, came to the conclusion that the South African Police was responsible for the deaths, but no individual was implicated.
