Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC) is worried with the heightened level of political intolerance & violence in the country and not just in KwaZulu Natal province, this is a serious democratic crises.

It is also important to inform you that the PAC student wing (PASMA) have lost its leader, Cde Philela Gilwa who was assassinated during the weekend. PAC can confirm that the deceased comrade was active in the Land Repossession/Occupation programmes. There was similar incident which is under investigation where another activist, Cde Rasta was murdered.

We are aware that there are Members of Parliament who are threatened for greedy & selfish ends. We are appealing to the law-enforcers to do much in terms of ringing perpetrators' to the book to face the might of the law.

Our government is being turned into mafia and gangster state by a networked and connected thugs. These thugs are masquerading as leaders and have hijacked the people's government. These thugs steal the resources of the pubic for their own families while our masses are drowning in abject poverty.

We are also worried that one organisation known to be violent is involved in the Dr Khoza's story of SMS. The police should come to fore and apprehend these thugs who are taking us backward. These political killings are not only taking place in KZN, the entire country experiences that. We want an end to these barbaric killings.
