The government has admitted that the early release of two parolees may have resulted in the deaths of two children in separate incidents.

that the parole system needs to be asked tough questions about why Pistoors and Pangarker were released.

But, he said, this system can fail: “It seems on two occasions recently, we have been found wanting on this very crucial mandate and the cost has been too ghastly to bear as it has led to a loss of a daughter and a son here in the Western Cape and for that, we are deeply pained.” Lamola also said there are already legislative tools to declare offenders convicted of gender-based crimes to be declared “dangerous criminals” and be given indefinite sentences. “Now, more than ever, we need robust, transparent and consistent practices for managing consequences of noncompliance across the board.”

So the two suspects were out on parole after committing a child rape and child murder. Two innocent children's lives have ended because we paroled a child rapist and a child murderer. Feel the deathpenalty the first time round would have prevented this.

So that begs the question can these parents sue government for gross neglect of duty?
