Book excerpt: Ahmed Timol is one of the most celebrated official murder victims of apartheid South Africa, in the grim company of Solwande 'Looksmart' Ngudle, Joseph Mdluli, Dr. Hoosen Haffejee, Steve Biko, Neil Aggett, the Imam Haron and so many others. The technique of 'defenestratio, ' the act of being teasingly dangled and sometimes dropped, by accident or on purpose, from a high police window, was immortalised in his own death. Ahmed Timol plunged ten stories and hit the ground under bushes at Johannesburg's notorious John Vorster Square.
