New Luthuli inquest welcomed
The Star
|April 11, 2025
THE family of the late ANC president Inkosi Albert Luthuli has welcomed the National Prosecuting Authority's (NPA) decision to reopen the inquest into his death.
The NPA announced on Wednesday that it would reopen the inquest into the death of Luthuli and ANC stalwart and well-known human rights lawyer Griffiths Mxenge.
Luthuli who was elected as ANC president in 1952, died in 1967 while Mxenge was assassinated in 1981 in Umilazi, south of Durban.
In a statement the NPA in Kwa-Zulu-Natal said both inquests will be conducted simultaneously in the Pietermaritzburg High Court on Monday.
