2008-10-28 11:44
Pretoria - SA Communist Party leader Chris Hani's killer Clive Derby-Lewis' application for parole was postponed in the Pretoria High Court on Tuesday.
The matter was postponed to mid-November to allow other parties to be joined to the motion.
Derby-Lewis, 72, who made a brief appearance in court, was convicted along with Janusz Walus for Hani's assassination on April 10, 1993.
Their sentences were commuted to life imprisonment in 1995.
Derby-Lewis' attorney, Marius Coertze, said the Hani family joined the motion on Monday afternoon.
