Did the truth and reconciliation commission brought about closure to the kriel family
Answers
Explanation:
I salute the rank-and-file members of the ANC. You have sacrificed life and limb in the pursuit of the noble cause of our struggle … I salute combatants of Umkhonto weSizwe, like Solomon Mahlangu and Ashley Kriel, who have paid the ultimate price for the freedom of all South Africans." – Nelson Mandela, in his first speech in Cape Town on his release from prison in February 1990.
Ashley Kriel was just 20 years old when he died on the Cape Flats on July 9 1987, a martyr in the fight for freedom in South Africa. Yet, despite the passage of time, his two sisters are today still battling to find closure over his brutal death.
In the eyes of Michel Assure and Melanie Adams, Kriel was a born leader who was both spirited and funny. Even though they had fears for his safety, his sisters were not surprised when he joined the ANC's military wing, Umkhonto weSizwe (MK), to fight the apartheid regime. Kriel went to an ANC camp in Lusaka and later returned, but spent most of his time in hiding in areas close to their childhood home.

Explanation:
The TRC was set up in terms of the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act, No. 34 of 1995, and was based in Cape Town. The hearings started in 1996. The mandate of the commission was to bear witness to, record, and in some cases grant amnesty to the perpetrators of crimes relating to human rights violations, as well as offering reparation and rehabilitation to the victims. A register of reconciliation was also established so that ordinary South Africans who wished to express regret for past failures could also express their remorse.[4].
