SACP PHILIP RADEBE DISTRICT CONDERMS THE ARREST OF CPS DEPUTY GENERAL SECRETARY

SACP Phillip Radebe District strongly condemns
the arrest of Deputy General Secretary of
Communist Party of Swaziland cde Musa Dube
16 September 2013
The South African Communist Party in Phillip
Radebe District is deeply disgusted over the arrest
of cde Musa Dube, a senior leader of the
Communist Party of Swaziland as its DGS. Cde
Musa Dube was arrested at KaKhoza on Saturday
14th 2013 for simply exercising his right normally
acceptable in most democratic states for freedom
of expression and political association and
subsequently charged with sedition.
This confirms our firm view that we had previously
expressed in various fora that the undemocratic
regime of Tinkundla is standing on shaky ground
and unleashing reign of terror to all it deems to
be an impediment to its gluttonous blood thirsty
barbarism. Cde Musa Dube remains a peace loving
revolutionary whose only crime in the eyes of the
regime is to see a free and democratic Swaziland.
Charges levelled against the Deputy General
Secretary are trumped-up to instil fear thereby
sustaining draconian tyrannical rule of Mswati and
his Tinkundla cronies who are doing everything in
their power to eat up citizens like pigs eating its
piglets. The regime will do everything in its power
to silence masses while evidently the country is
crumbling. Swaziland belongs to all its citizens
and ALL this citizens must benefit from it and not
a selected apologists and praise singers.
The South African Communist Party demands the
immediate release of Cde Musa Dube and others.
The only person that must go to jail is mswati
himself and his collaborators. We call upon our
Democratic State and government arms to be
decisive and putting even more pressure on the
release of ALL political prisoners, unbanning of
political parties, safe return of all political exiles,
an installation of an interim government. Our
Government cannot watch while ordinary peace
loving citizens get maimed, killed, arrested,
bludgeoned and some disappear on mysterious
grounds.
We remain hopeful that Swaziland will be free and
this freedom must happen in our life time.
‘Elections’ cannot be elections when political
parties are banned. ‘Elections’ cannot be elections
when political prisoners languish in jail and some
die there. ‘Elections’ cannot be election when
reign of terror is unleashed on trade union
movement and exiles cannot return home.
Release Musa Dube NOW!
