ANCWL WELCOMES NPA DECISION TO APPEAL
27 October 2014
The African National Congress Women's League welcomes the decision by the National Prosecuting Authority to appeal the conviction and the sentence in the Oscar Pistorius Murder Trial. As an organisation, we remain convinced that another court could have justifiably reached a conviction of murder rather than culpable homicide in this case and we thus support the NPA in their application. As previously indicated, the ANC Women's League will be making an application to be admitted as a Friend of the Court in this matter.
