Chris Hani's killer to be freed within 14 days

South African Communist Party leader Chris Hani’s killer Janusz Walus must be released from prison within 14 days‚ a Pretoria court ordered on Thursday.

His co-conspirator Clive Derby-Lewis was released on June 5.

Hani was shot on April 10 1993.

Derby-Lewis procured the weapon for Walus‚ a Polish immigrant‚ who pulled the trigger.

Both were sentenced to death‚ but their sentences were later commuted to life imprisonment
