The ANC condemns what appears to be an attempt to burn down its head quarters, Chief Albert Luthuli House this evening around 18:00. A suspicious fire broke out at the reception of the building next to the main entrance. The suspicious fire burned a reception couch and damaged a glass. The attempt was foiled by timeous intervention by our security personnel who used fire extinguishers to put down ballooning flames that were almost reaching the ceiling of the reception area. We view this in serious light as it appears as an act of attempting to destabilize the ANC through acts arson and sabotage. The police have taken over the parameters of Luthuli House with a view to investigate the source the fire and to ensure that there is no other pending threat to the building and people in the building.
