South African police are investigating the death of Zimbabwean writer and freelance journalist Heidi Holland, who was found hanged in the garden of her Johannesburg home on 11 August. There were no signs of foul play.
Holland, who was 64, was the author of the 2008 book Dinner with Mugabe, which was based on her interviews with Zimbabwe's president, Robert Mugabe, and people close to him over more than 30 years.
She was also the author of 100 years of struggle: Mandela's ANC. She reported for several newspapers and sometimes wrote columns for the The Star in Johannesburg.
