The granddaughter of Chris Hani laments the brutal killing of the former SACP general secretary which continues to haunt the family.
The granddaughter of former SACP general secretary Chris Hani has found healing from the trauma of his untimely death, while his party continues to call for the truth around his assassination.
Released two years ago after spending almost three decades in prison, 71-year-old Walus spent the past two years under community correction. “Walus took away someone I could ask for guidance on any matter in life and a role I could assume to help people – someone heroic in our family. “But the most important part is knowing how to deal with triggers. When we hear court or government announcements on Walus being made and watch the news on television, we are challenged on how to handle developments in terms of our daily lives,” said Nosipho.Complete healing meant “not forgetting what happened, but letting go”.
