The National Union of Metalworkers has hit out at possible parole for Clive Derby-Lewis. The right-winger is serving a life sentence for the murder of Communist Party leader Chris Hani.

Numsa also called for a judicial commission of inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the assassination, 18 years ago.

The union’s Castro Ngobese says they hope that Correctional Services Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula is not considering releasing Derby-Lewis, despite the fact that he is seriously ill with cancer.
