Amnesty, What Amnesty? The Case Against FW De Klerk Imam Haron Lecture

About
Imam Haron

Abdullah Haron was born on 8 February 1924 in Newlands-Claremont, an area which in the late twentieth century became a very prosperous commercial centre in Cape Town’s southern suburbs. He was the youngest in a family of five, and still an infant when Asa Martin, his mother died. Since his father Amarien, was not able to care for him, the latter’s childless sister, Maryam, reared him. This aunt made her firm-handed influence felt during his teens. She supported him to pursue his studies until the time he got married to Galiema Sadan on 15 March in 1950.
