Chris Hani was many things to many people - fighter, father, husband and friend. Few knew his personal world better than Anne Duthie, the woman, from a different world, he fell in love with. Read an excerpt from Hani: A Life Too Short by Janet Smith and Beauregard Tromp on the revolutionary’s secret lover:
During the speeches, Hani had laid out the hard truth about the violent political stasis unfolding in South Africa, despite the peace talk of the ANC. Anne Duthie realised that the way he delivered his messages could envelop a crowd, lifting them up and carrying them with him into the heart of his conviction.
At the dinner there was a mix of old and new faces to London, all drawn together by their opposition to apartheid. Hani was the centre of attention.
Earlier in the day he had been able to talk to Duthie on the phone. He had got in touch to tell her that he would be in London.
