Ace Magashule supporters who disrupted book launch are undermining democracy
10 April 2019
The FF Plus condemns the behaviour of protesters at the book launch of Pieter-Louis Myburgh's book entitled Gangster State about the ANC secretary-general, Ace Magashule, and views it as the undermining of freedom of speech and, thus, also democracy.
The FF Plus insists that the police must speedily investigate the incident and that the people who are responsible for damaging books must be arrested so as to send a loud and clear message that such behaviour will not be tolerated.
The police must also say why they allowed the protesters to disrupt the launch and damage property.
Myburgh himself said that one got the impression that the protesters told the police what to do.
