South Africa condemns terrorist attack in China
South Africa on Monday condemned “in the strongest possible terms” the terrorist attack at the Kunming Railway Station in China’s Yunnan province.
“The South Africa Government condemns all forms and manner of terrorism. We believe that terrorism in any form and from whichever quarter cannot be condoned,” said Clayson Monyela, spokesperson for the Department of International Relations and Cooperation.
“The South African government sends it deepest condolences to the government and the people of the People’s Republic of China, and in particularly to the families of the deceased and wish the injured speedy recoveries,” said Monyela.
Chinese police said Monday three suspects involved in the terrorist attack in the southwestern city of Kunming had been captured.
The Ministry of Public Security said in a statement that the terrorist gang of eight members led by Abdurehim Kurban was responsible for the attack.
Police shot and killed four of them and captured an injured female at the scene on Saturday night, the statement said.
The knife-wielding attackers slashed frantically at crowds at a railway station in Kunming of southwest China’s Yunnan Province on Saturday, killing 29 people and injuring 143.
