Minister of Home Affairs Aaron Motsoaledi has granted Chris Hani’s killer, Janusz Walus, permanent residency in order for him to serve his parole.
“The Minister granted the exemption in order for Mr Walus to serve his parole period in South Africa and the exemption contains a condition that Mr Walus may not use any travel document and/or passport issued by the Embassy of the Republic of Poland,” reads a statement from the department.A letter addressed to Walus and a certificate of exemption has also been forwarded to Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola to be delivered to Walus.
“The letter set out the exceptional circumstances requiring the granting of the exemption which, inter alia, include the fact that it would be in the interests of justice that Mr Walus serves his sentence to the fullest, including parole in the Republic of South Africa.”The department of home affairs also stated that it would not be involved in any deportation process of Walus to Poland.
“It is clear from the media reports that the Embassy of the Republic of Poland, believes that if Walus is deported to Poland, he won’t serve any parole in the Republic of Poland because the Constitutional court judgment is not binding on that country.”Motsoaledi also said that the crime committed to the people of South Africa by murdering one of the icons of the liberation struggle makes it obligatory for Walus to serve his parole period as part of sentence in the country.
