Published on: Sunday 28 August 2022
Amid post-election tensions, Angola held a funeral on Sunday for long-serving ex-leader Jose Eduardo dos Santos, who died in Spain in July but whose burial was delayed by a family request for an autopsy. Dos Santos died in a clinic in Barcelona on July 8 at the age of 79. Dos Santos and his family dominated Angolan politics for the 38 years that he ruled until 2017.
