After numerous failed parole bids, the Constitutional Court has agreed to hear the parole matter of Janusz Walus, killer of anti-apartheid activist Chris Hani.

Speaking to TimesLIVE on Monday, Walus’s lawyer Julian Knight said they had filed an application, seeking to be heard by the apex court as far back as April but only last week received positive feedback from the court.Knight said they were “cautiously optimistic” that these court proceedings would finally see Walus, now 68, released after almost three decades of incarceration.were sentenced to death for murdering Hani, the SA Communist Party’s general secretary.

Derby-Lewis and Walus’s sentences were later commuted to life imprisonment when SA abolished the death penalty. Derby-Lewis, who had allegedly ordered the hit carried out by Walus, was granted medical parole in 2015 and died the next year of cancer.

Why's this madafaka still alive ... somebody please abulale lomgodoyi 😠

Parole is not a right. Take Robert Kennedy's assassin, for eg; he's been in jai since 1968, & has been denied parole multiple times over the past 15 yrs. Although finally recommended for parole this year, no decision has yet been taken.

So killers with multiple killings are out

Being Heard By The Constitutional Court Is His Democratic Right! The Pain He Inflicted On The South African People & The Family Of One Of Their Top Leaders, Chris Hani, Is Simply Indescribable! Hope The Judges Will Always Have This In Mind When Deciding On The Fate Of This Killer

What ever happens to him I don't care until he mention those who send him to kill Hani

He deserve to be release..IT enough

He deserve to perish in jail

Next thing you know, he dies of Covid related complications ☝🏾 watch the space
