READER LETTER | Suprised by SACP's Waluś reaction: We didn’t hear SACP’s cries for justice during the inquests of the murdered SACP activists like Ahmed Timol and Neil Aggett.
Nokuthula Simelane’s murderers are alive but still to face trial for her disappearance, torture, and murder.
In 2015, former NPA boss Vusi Pikoli deposed an affidavit detailing that there has been political interference in the prosecution of people denied amnesty by the TRC. The interference happened because some cabinet ministers and top government officials were implicated, so politicians had to protect themselves.To date, the SACP has never protested against delays in the prosecution of crimes committed against activists during apartheid.
When Barend Strydom was released from prison, the SACP never requested consent of his victims’ families. When Dirk Coetzee, the former commander of Vlakpaas , joined the ANC, the SACP didn’t facilitate talks between him and the families of Griffiths Mxenge, Vuyani Muvaso and other activists who became victims of his killing spree. Eugene de Kock is out of jail, and the SACP never requested his continued imprisonment.
