JOHANNESBURG - The April 1993 murder of SA Communist Party leader Chris Hani was a turning point in South African history.
The assassination sent shockwaves through a nation on the brink of transformation.
The man who pulled the trigger was Polish immigrant Janusz Walus, who spent 28 years in prison before being granted parole.
His co-accused was Conservative Party MP, Clive Derby Lewis, who supplied Walus with a stolen pistol and an alleged hit list with nine names on it.
Walus says he was driven by racism, and his willingness to protect the government of the day.
This Annika Larsen special report will be broadcast on eNCA on Sunday at 8pm.
