The African
Christian Democratic Party says the possible appeal against the suspended sentence
of Adries Petrus Retief by the Western Cape Directorate of Public Prosecutions
is the correct one.
ACDP Western Cape
leader Ferlon Christians says, should the appeal be successful, it will correct
the actions taken by the state and send out a clear message of zero tolerance.
Retief admitted to 2130 counts of child pornography.
Christians believes
that the eight-year suspended sentence does not fit the crime committed by
Reteif.
“This sends a
wrong message to potential perpetrators. And we as the ACDP support the DPP to
appeal the sentence .He should get jail time and not a suspended sentence.”
Christian said.
