Horn, Mr W to ask the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services
Whether he has considered the parole application of a certain person (details furnished); if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what was the outcome of his consideration?
Reply:
Yes, the Minister has considered the offender’ profile for possible placement on parole wherein he approved that the profile of offender Nxumalo be submitted for reconsideration after 31 January 2022.
In the interim the offender will be subjected to the following interventions:
- The offender to undergo insight orientated psychotherapy to deal with his anti-social personality disorder and loss of his mother;
- A risk assessment by a non-treating psychologist to be conducted;
- The offender to be encouraged to improve his vocational skills to assist him with prospects of obtaining employment once he is placed on parole.
