Janusz Waluś
Janusz Waluś (born 14 January 1953) is the assassin of Chris Hani, who was chief of staff of Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK), the armed wing of the African National Congress (ANC).〔Hani lived and died for his principles - DA. http://www.news24.com/ 2013-04-10〕 Born in Zakopane in 1953, Waluś immigrated from communist Poland in 1981 to South Africa to join his father and brother who had arrived in the 1970s and already established a small glass factory there. After the family business went bankrupt some years later, Waluś, now a truck driver, also joined both the National Party and the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging becoming more and more involved in the far right politics supporting South Africa's apartheid regime. Waluś defended his political objectives with the statement:
The assassination of Chris Hani took place on Easter Saturday, 10 April 1993, a time when negotiations to end apartheid were taking place.〔Murder with a Political Motive. ''Economic and Political Weekly''. 1993〕 Waluś drove to Chris Hani's house in Boksburg, Johannesburg, around 10:20am. Hani had just returned home and as he got out of his car, Waluś called out his name, at which Hani turned around and was shot once in the body and then three times in the head. Hani died on the scene, while Waluś fled. A neighbour took down the number plate of the car fleeing the scene of Hani's death, resulting in Waluś being caught. Although he denied any participation in the assassination, Waluś made the mistake of assuming one of the policemen was a right-winger and exposed his own story.〔Kemp, A. The death of Chris Hani: An African Misadventure (online). Available at: http://www.jrnyquist.com/may14/an_assassination.htm〕 After thorough investigation, the murder was traced to Clive Derby-Lewis, who instigated the assassination and organised the acquisition of the weapon for Waluś. The police found a hit-list which suggested that Hani was only third on Waluś and Derby-Lewis's list, following other famous figures such as Nelson Mandela and Joe Slovo.〔
Janusz Waluś and Clive Derby-Lewis were sentenced to death for their actions, but after the abolition of the death penalty in South Africa their sentence was commuted to life imprisonment 〔http://www.volkstaat.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=703:free-janusz-walu-boer-prisoners&catid=56:latest&Itemid=82〕 With the introduction of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission after apartheid, Waluś applied for amnesty, which would give him parole. After extensive investigation the commission found that he and Derby-Lewis were not acting on higher orders and refused amnesty; he remained in prison.〔 Clive Derby-Lewis was later released from prison in June 2015 after serving 22 years.
