An anti-racism group has called on Correctional Services Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula to oppose the court ruling that double killer Pieter Groenewald be released.

The Social Movement Against Racist Tendencies says it will approach the Constitutional Court if nothing is done.

A High Court order compelled Correctional Services to release Groenewald, seven years after he was jailed for 20 years for a roadside attack on three men.
