The Treatment Action Campaign has welcomed
the release of 127 activitsts and community healthcare workers who were
arrested following a peaceful sit in.
TAC’s Anele Yawa said instead of dealing
with the collapsing health system in the Free State the province is
rather cracking down on peaceful campaigners for the right to health.
“We welcome the release of our comrades by
the Bloemfontein Magistrates Court.
We also respect the conditions which were
laid by the Magistrates that they must not engage themselves to any illegal
gathering, however that does not mean that when ever TAC is having a legal
gathering or a march, they cannot be involved on that as long as that gathering
is legal.” Yawa added.
