MORRIS, Simon

Age

Description
Morris, along with five other scholars, was interrogated, tortured and killed by AZAPO members in Soweto, Johannesburg, on 1 August 1986. The incident was sparked off by the burning of the house of an AZAPO leader for which the youths were believed to have been responsible. Three perpetrators were refused amnesty, and one was granted amnesty (AC/2000/179 and AC/1999/230).
