The Correctional Services Department says it is investigating an incident in which an inmate stabbed convicted murderer Janusz Walus at the Kgosi Mampuru prison in Pretoria.

The department says Walus, who was wounded and admitted to the prison hospital, is in stable condition. The stabbing comes just days after the Constitutional Court ruled that Walus be released on parole by Friday. The Apex Court ruled that Justice Minister Ronald Lamola’s decision to deny the Polish immigrant parole was irrational.

Walus gunned down the former SACP general-secretary Chris Hani in 1993, pushing South Africa to the brink of a civil war.Department spokesperson Singabakho Nxumalo, “Our healthcare officials are attending to him and we can state that he is currently stable and every necessary care will be afforded to him. It is alleged that inmate Walus was stabbed by another inmate from the same housing unit.

Why are you late, we’ve heard this yesterday already 🤷🏾

Your use of the language declares your ability to unbiased reporting. The one who attempts the murder is an 'inmate' while the victim is 'convicted murderer'.

So there’s absolutely no media house that has a resent picture of Janusz Walus,journalists are lazy shame.Why all of a sudden is this guy stabbed,I mean he has been in jail for about 29 years… why now? This doesn’t make sense.We want to see him in hospital with resent pictures

The correctional service known that Walus was at risk and deliberately allowed him being stabbed, obviously not treating all prisoners the same absolutely racism.

This inmate needs a Bells.Well done. No harm done try again .

I find this very strange… as he gets parole he suddenly gets stabbed…?

Mandla Madonsela member of SACP related to ADV Thulu Madonsela who is serving life sentence at kgosimampuru correctional centre stabbed Walus Junus today at (G) section G4 cell number (24) were Walus stays. ...my Question is one why they are hiding the person who stabbed him 😦
