The African National Congress in the Western Cape
denounces any incitement of people to take the law into their own hands.
The ANC says that vigilantism
is a form of criminal behavior that is punishable under the law.
This statement comes after the
arrest of Ses’khona leader and ANC Provincial Executive member Andile Lili for
his incitement of violence made publicly earlier this week.
Faiez Jacobs said we want to
make sure that our members respect the rule of law and everybody is innocent
until proven guilty.
Jacobs added that “I think for
us that is a very important point, we fought for the constitution and
democracy”.
We will investigate the matter
as the ANC and that is our approach, Jacobs added.
