EFF LEADER has called on Police Minister Bheki Cele to find Hillary Gardee’s killers before the party does.
Malema was speaking during a visit to the Gardee family home in West Acres in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, yesterday.
He was accompanied by party deputy president Floyd Shivambu, secretary-general Marshall Dlamini and Dali Mpofu.
The body of Hillary, the daughter of former EFF secretary-general Godrich Gardee, was found dumped at a timber planation 40km from Mbombela on Tuesday, 3 May. The 28-year-old was last seen at a shopping complex on Friday, 9 April, with a toddler, who was later found wandering the streets of KaMagugu alone.
According to family spokesman Sinawo Tambo, the toddler indicated that Hillary was held against her will and there had been a violent interaction.
Malema said: “We’ve deployed all resources on the ground to look for these criminals. The report we have is that we can rest assured it is not a mission that comes from outside. We want to teach them a lesson they will never forget for the rest of their livesbecause they took on the wrong one this time.
Anyone who touches our children, touches us.”“They don’t want to see the ugly side of the EFF.” They invited it and we shall show the ugly side of the EFF.”
“It is a mission that is internal and, therefore, we have no reason to be looking across borders for who could have done this.
He said the EFF won’t rest until the killers are found.
“Women have been killed in this country. This crime declared against women started during colonial times as they’ve always been hated for being black, women and working class.” Cops have instituted a 72-hour activation plan to look for the culprits.
