Television and Radio Broadcaster Karima Brown will be laid to rest in a private burial in accordance with Islamic rites in Johannesburg later today.
She passed away this morning from Covid-19 related complications.
In a statement, her family says she was driven by a conviction that "journalism must be in
service of justice." The family says they are proud of the fierce determination Brown has shown since her early years to bring about a more just, inclusive and anti-racist South Africa.
An announcement will be made about a public memorial service in honour of Karima's life in due course.
