The EFF notes, with deep sadness, the decision of the Pretoria High Court to grant Chris Hani's assassin, Janusz Walus, parole which means he will be released from prison in two weeks time. It also means Janusz Walus, together with his co-assassin Clive Derby Lewis, will now be free from life sentences after serving only two decades. They will join a South Africa they sought to collapse into the cold and dark shadows of civil war, in protection of apartheid.

The system that Walusz killed Chris Hani to protect, the system of the protection and advancement of white privilege at the expense of the black people, remain intact. FW De Klerk, for whom people like Eugene De Kock worked, is still breathing the same anti-black air that informed apartheid and Walusz.
