Arrest warrant for head of Interpol over murder case! |
2007-09-28 |
South African prosecutors have issued an arrest warrant for Commissioner of Police Jackie Selebi, reports say. Mr Selebi is the current head of the international police body, Interpol. He has not been arrested, and his spokeswoman said she knew nothing of the warrant. The National Prosecuting Authority has not commented. Opposition parties have highlighted Mr Selebi's reported criminal links and say if reports of the warrant are true, he should be suspended from his post. Previous press reports have linked Mr Selebi to Glenn Agliotti, who was arrested last year in connection with the murder of leading businessman Brett Kebble. |

#1 From Wikipedia: Selebi was a representative of the World Federation of Democratic Youth in Budapest, Hungary from 1983 - 1987. Thereafter he was elected Head of the ANC Youth League and member of the National Executive Committee of the ANC in 1987. In 1991 he was responsible for the repatriation of ANC exiles and in 1993 was appointed Head of the Department of Welfare of the ANC. Selebi was elected Honourable Member of Parliament during the 1994 elections. In 1995, Selebi was appointed South Africa's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Geneva. Switzerland. In 1998 he got a Human Rights Award from the International Service for Human Rights. In 2007 Selebi was strongly criticised for responding to concern within the country over South Africa's rising crime rate with the comment "What's all the fuss about crime?" Okay, I get the ANC and UN ambassador bits. But what's the World Federation of Democratic Yoots? Ah, of course: The World Federation of Democratic Youth (WFDY) is a left-wing youth organization, recognized by the United Nations as an international youth non-governmental organization. WFDY, which describes itself as an "anti-imperialist, left-wing" organisation, was founded in London in 1945. WFDY was formed as a broad international youth movement, organized in the context of the end of the Second World War. But at the beginning of the Cold War, almost all Western organizations pulled out of WFDY due to its association with Soviet-aligned socialist and Communist parties. It is generally considered to be a successor organisation to the Young Communist International. I see a Nobel Prize in this man's future. Unless his racketeering buddies arrange for a "accident". |
