South Africa probes four anti-apartheid activists’ murder

South Africa’s justice ministry said Friday it will re-open an inquiry into the murder of four anti-apartheid activists which became one of the era’s most notorious crimes but remains unsolved nearly four decades on.

The so-called Cradock Four were abducted and murdered while returning home to the southern town of Cradock in June 1985 after a meeting.

The security forces under the apartheid regime were suspected of being behind the killings. But no one has been brought to justice.
