Amina Cachalia, who's died in Johannesberg at the age of 82, was a veteran of South Africa's struggle against apartheid. Cachalia, an Indian South African, was a close friend to Nelson Mandela for more than sixty years. Just as my father used to say, if you don't fight injustice it's like death, in a sense. You accept death. — Amina Cachalia
