The reopened inquest into the death of the late anti-apartheid activist, Imam Abdullah Haron, will continue at the High Court in Cape Town on Monday.

Haron was arrested in May 1969 and detained in Cape Town. He was found dead in his cell at the Maitland Police Station after 123 days in police detention.

The first inquest in 1970 found that his death was attributed to injuries sustained during an alleged fall down a staircase at the Cape Town Police Station and a heart condition. On Friday, a forensic pathologist testified that Haron may been beaten severely shortly before his death. Dr Steve Naidoo testified that the injuries on the Imam’s body may have been caused by punches while he was in detention.Father’s death unexpected
