YCLSA Press Statement
05 September 2012 YCLSA on the conviction and postponement of sentencing of Comrade Amos Mbedzi by demonic Swazi despot The Young Communist League of South Africa [uFasimba] issues this statement full of contempt for the Swazi despot and his monarch and its continued oppression of the people of Swaziland. This regime has stooped to the levels worse than the demonic apartheid South Africa without any ounce of respect for law even the ones it makes. The King has been directly involved in the case against Comrade Amos Mbedzi a former YCLSA, ANC, SACP, SSN and MK member serving as a direct exploiter, judiciary and security chief in the violation of rights and against all protocols be they local and international. The inconsistencies within the arrest, prosecution and conviction of Comrade Mbedzi demands that the people of South Africa and the world unite in their condemnation of the despot Tinkundla system. We further support the call by the Limpopo province of the South African Communist Party on SADC and the AU to immediately suspend Swaziland‘s membership in their respective organisations and the South African government to send the High Commissioner of Swaziland home. We further call on the progressive organisations and the people of South Africa to join in solidarity campaigns to support the struggles waged by the people of Swaziland against the oppressive feudal and undemocratic Tinkundla system and the monarch. As the YCLSA we support the following demands: • The immediate release of all political prisoners in Swaziland • The unbanning of political parties in Swaziland • The abolition of the undemocratic, feudal and fascist “Tinkundla System of Governance” where only wives, girlfriends, concubines, relatives and friends of the King are allowed to occupy key positions in government • The creation of constitutional multi-party democracy in Swaziland The people of South Africa and Swaziland share much more than land, they have relations and have shared struggles for freedoms together, let us continue fighting together against all forms of oppression and be intolerant of the situation in Swaziland. We also agree with our Swaziland Solidarity Network [SSN] when it says: “We denounce the trumped up charges especially the laughable and ludicrous one on murder of his friends and comrades for which shamefully the Judge found him guilty, making the Swazi law a joke.” Issued by the YCLSA Head Office For more information contact: Mangaliso Stalin Khonza National Spokesperson Young Communist League of SA Cell: +27 83617 5546 Tel (w): +27 11 339 3621 Email: [email protected] Sent from my iPad -- You are subscribed.
