People Against Gangsterism and Drugs has
confirmed that another member has been arrested.
Pagad’s Cassiem Parker said Zakariyyah
Albertyn was arrested on Monday night in connection with a triple murder in
Athlone.
This follows the arrest of Pagad’s leader Abdus
Salaam Ebrahim last week.
However police have not confirmed Albertyn’s
arrest.
“Zakariyyah Albertyn was taken from his house
and police alleged that it is in connection with the same triple murder that
our national coordinator Abdus Salaam Ebrahim has been incarcerated,” added
Parker.
He furthermore explained that as Pagad they
think that it is a continuation of the witch hunt and also added that they
believe that Albertyn is also a victim of detention without trial.
Parker reiterates that as Pagad they are calling
on the police to direct their efforts to ridding the communities of drug
dealers but he believes that with the situation on hand police are doing the
opposite.
