* * ***CWU ON THE DEATH OF ANTON HAMMERL*
* * *20 May 2011* The Communication Workers Union (CWU) is saddened by the death of photographer and journalist, Mr Anton Hammerl, who is reported to have died in the hands of the forces aligned to Colonel Muammar Gaddafi in Libya on 5 April 2011. Anton Hammerl was an outstanding, courageous, dedicated and committed photographer. As CWU, we condemn the killing of Hammerl and the continued onslaught on protesters by Gaddafi’s forces in Lybia. We call on the South African’s International Relations Minister to sanction an investigation into the circumstances leading to the arrest and the subsequent killing of Anton Hammerl. Our condolences go to Hammerl’s family, friends and the media fraternity both at home and abroad. * * *Contact:* * * *Matankana Mothapo, National Spokesperson - 0827590900 * * * -- You are subscribed.
