Hearings at the inquest into the death of anti-apartheid activist Neil Aggett have concluded

The hearings at the inquest into the death of anti-apartheid activist Neil Aggett have concluded. The focus will now shift to the inquest of another activist, Ernest Dipale, who also allegedly committed suicide at the then John Vorster Square Police Station in Johannesburg in the same year, 1982. The security branch police claimed that both Dipale and Aggett hanged themselves in their cells. Testifying virtually on the final day of the Aggett inquest, Police officer, Captain Ben Nel said his colleagues had called him a traitor for taking on the investigation. Nel says that he had been assigned the case in 2016.
