USinawo Tambo weEFF uyayixhasa intetho kaAdv Mkhwebane ekuthiwa inocalucalulo lobuhlanga.
Ngelixa iLungu le-EFF ePalamente uBusisiwe Mkhwebane ethethe intetho ekuthiwa inocalucalulo lobuhlanga ngamaNdiya kwiinkundla zamatyala kutsale umdla kwiKomishoni yamaLungelo oLuntu yaseMzantsi Afrika (South African Human Rights Commission), elinye ilungu le-EFF uSinawo Tambo uye waphumela phandle emxhasa.
Kwingxelo ekhutshwe ngoMvulo, ikomishini ithe iwubeke esweni lo mba kwaye iqaphele iinjongo zamaqela athile anomdla wokuthetha nekomishini. Bakwaqaphele ukuba inkundla, izifundiswa, imibutho yoluntu “kunye noluntu ngokubanzi luphakamise inkxalabo malunga nokuthotywa kwengxelo ngokobuhlanga”.
Kwiveki ephelileyo, iNkundla ePhakamileyo yeziBheno (SCA) iye yasichitha isibheno sikaMkhwebane esichasene neNkundla ePhakamileyo yeNtshona Koloni yokuchitha isicelo sakhe sokushenxisa usihlalo wekomiti yeCandelo 194 eyayichophele ukutyholwa kwakhe, kunye nelungu lePalamente leDA ebelisebenza kuloo komiti.
Ephendula isigwebo seSCA, esibhalwe nguJaji uNathan Ponnan, uMkhwebane uye kwiqonga lezonxibelelwano u-X.
“Umzabalazo wam oqhubekayo ububandakanya abantu ababalulekileyo, uninzi lwabo bayinzalelwane yaseIndiya, abazibeke njengabatshutshisi bam. Aba bantu baquka uPravin Gordhan, uBouwer (inkokeli yobungqina), uAdhikarie (umcebisi oyintloko wezomthetho wePalamente), uHassan Ebrahim (obizwa ngokuba yinkokeli yezomthetho) ingqina eliyingcaphephe u-Ivan Pillay (ingqina), kunye noFatima Ebrahim (umcebisi wezomthetho wePalamente).
“Isigqibo seSCA sokuchitha isibheno sam siphawula ukubuyisela umva okubalulekileyo, hayi kum nje kuphela kodwa kubo bonke abo bakholelwa kwindima yam njengomkhuseli wamalungelo oluntu kunye nokuphendula. La mava ebengawokuphoxeka nodano olukhulu, aveza inkxalabo enzulu, umkhethe oqhubeka uphazamisa ukunyaniseka bobulungiswa.”
