Hammarskjöld’s 50-year mystery
In this Sunday's Cyprus Mail I'm looking into claims which feature in a new book by academic Susan Williams called “Who Killed Dag Hammarskjöld” which asks intriguing questions about the possibility of foul play being behind the plane crash which killed the former UNSG back in 1961. Mystery has deepened surrounding the incident after claims that an American officer based in Nicosia heard the diplomat’s plane being shot at just minutes before it crashed. Hammarskjöld’s plane came down in a forest near Ndola, in present-day Zambia 50 –years ago this week, killing 15-people on board - but despite multiple official inquiries no evidence of assassination has ever been found. Dag Hammarskjold's nephew Knut, the American officer that heard the recording and the books author all speak with the Cyprus Mail this Sunday.
