SOUTH African communists (SACP) remain unrelentingly opposed to the release from jail of Janusz Walus, who murdered their general secretary Chris Hani, party spokesman Alex Mashilo confirmed today.
“The assassin says he does not regret assassinating Chris Hani the communist, but the husband and father. This is nothing but an intransigent refusal to show remorse,” he said.
“Hani was an indivisible person. Hani the husband and father was the same person as Hani the communist. Walus’s assassination of Hani the communist was in all material respects the assassination of Hani the husband and father.
“Hani the communist’s family was left without Hani the husband and father since his assassination.”
