Far-right extremist Janusz Walus to be deported from South Africa to Poland

bbc.com

Janusz Walus, a far-right extremist convicted of murdering South African anti-apartheid leader Chris Hani in 1993, is set to be deported to Poland. He has spent nearly 30 years in South African prison and was released on parole in 2022. The South African government announced that Walus will leave the country on Friday night, with the Polish government covering the costs. This decision follows a ruling by the Constitutional Court, which the South African government is now implementing. Hani's widow expressed her distress over the late notification of Walus's deportation. The African National Congress has condemned Walus's actions and called for a full inquiry into Hani's assassination, which they say deprived South Africa of a key leader.
