ANC WELCOMES KARABUS RELEASE
The ANC welcomes the news that Prof Cyril Karabus (77) was cleared of charges in the United Arab Emirates this morning. It clears the way for Karabus to return to South Africa in a few days after he was convicted in absentia of trumped up charges following the death of a toddler of three years old.
On Tuesday the emeritus professor of the University of Cape Town, a specialist paediatric oncologist, was absolved from blame by a UAE medical review committee.
This followed months of diplomatic and other interaction to get Karabus out of jail and the three year sentence reversed.
The ANC is glad this tough period is now over for Karabus, his family, friends and many compatriots assisting him.
