'We will not apologise' - ANCYL KZN on Kathrada memorial disruption
18 April 2017
Durban - The ANC Youth League (ANCYL) in KwaZulu-Natal has reiterated that it will not apologise for "unruly behaviour" at the memorial service of struggle stalwart Ahmed Kathrada in Durban.
Instead it wants to meet the organisers of the service to discuss the matter.
The ANCYL had until Saturday, April 15, to apologise for the behaviour of its members during last Sunday's service where the main speaker and former finance minister Pravin Gordhan and African National Congress treasurer general Zweli Mkhize were booed, allegedly by members of the league.
The organisers - Active Citizens Movement (ACM) - through their lawyer Viren Singh, wrote a letter to the league asking it to publicly apologise for violating a court order and disrupting the service.
