SACP to picket against parole for Hani killer
Updated | By MornéJK
Members of the South African Communist Party (SACP) are set to picket outside the Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein on Monday.
Chris Hani's killer, Janusz Walus is approaching the court over his release on parole.
The SACP's provincial secretary in the Free State Bheke Stofile says they also want full disclosure of the circumstances leading to Chris Hani's murder.
"We will be picketing outside the court along with members of the party and its alliance partners," Stofile says.
He adds that it is a big day for the Hani family.
"Walus' own physiological evaluation in prison stated that he still harbours the same hatred against communists that he followed to murder Chris Hani in cold blood.
"We will also be using the picket in support of our party's call for an official inquest in to Hani's assassination," Stofile says.
Stofile says Walus remains a dangerous man opposed to a democratic South Africa.
"Janusz Walus must rot in jail and we are calling on the South African government to establish a judicial commission of inquiry on the calls to kill Chris Hani - and who was involved in that killing," he says.
