Laywer speaks after SCA dismisses Joao Rodrigues application

In 2018 Rodrigues was charged with Ahmed Timol’s murder after a second inquest ruled that his death was not suicide.

That inquest came fifteen years after Timol’s nephew Imtiaz Cajee first approached the National Prosecuting Authority

to reopen the case. Now, as Roderigues continues to battle to stay out of court what does the SCA decision mean for Timol’s family?

Lawyer Moray Hathorn who represents the family says they want to see Rodrigues stand trial.
