SSN CONDEMNS THE ARREST OF CPS<http://www.systemiccapital.com/communist-party-leader-arrested-during-election-boycott-campaign/> DGS SSN-STATEMENT: September 16 th , 2013 In the midst of a so-called democratic election, King Mswati has arrested a top-ranking member of the Communist Party of Swaziland for exercising his inalienable right to express his views. Musa Dube, who is also the Deputy General Secretary of the party, appeared today - the 16th September 2013 - at 1100hr at the Manzini magistrate court before a magistrate. He is charged with two counts: One being that he contravened section 4(c) of the sedition act in that, at Kakhoza in Manzini, on the 24th of September 2013, he unlawfully distributed containing seditious statements to numerous people unknown to the crown. On the second he was charged under section 4(e) of the same act that on the same day at the same place he was found in possession of the same pamphlets. He will appear again on the 25th September 2013 pending his committal to high court. He is currently at the Zakhele Remand Centre, where he will for the duration of his remand period. The Swaziland Solidarity Network [SSN] reiterates the calls by the "Break the Chains Campaign" that more action against the Mswati regime is needed on the ground. This is yet another instance which contradicts the spirit of free and fair elections, yet the SADC observer mission will not even record it in its report to the regional body. We condemn this outright violation of basic human rights and call upon all our solidarity partners to join us on the 20th of September when we will be blocking all boarders leading to the country. We demand that Musa Dube, and all other political prisoners, be set free immediately.
