The “incitement” trial of Economic Freedom Fighters’ (EFF) leader Julius Malema is expected to resume in the Newcastle Magistrate’s Court on Friday when Malema will appear on common law charges of incitement to commit a crime:
The charge sheet indicates that the Malema is accused of trespassing in contravention of “Section 1(1) Read as Section 2(1) of Trespass Act 6 of 1959 as amended by Criminal Law Amendment Act 59 of 1983”.
In June 2016, Malema told supporters in Newcastle to occupy land because it belonged to blacks; saying whites could not claim ownership of land.
After his brief appearing at the Newcastle Magistrate’s Court in November 2016, under the Riotous Assemblies Act was postponed — he was released on a warning — Malema stepped outside the court and told his supporters to “occupy the land because they have failed to give you the land”.
“If it means going to prison for telling you to take the land, so be it. I am not scared of prison because of the land question, but I am scared of prison if I go to prison for corruption. I don’t want to go to prison for corruption, but I want to go to prison for the land,” he told supporters.
“We are not calling for the slaughter of white people – at least for now.”
In 2014, at the EFF elective conference in Bloemfontein, Malema told members they should occupy the land, which led to him being charged for the first time under the Riotous Assemblies Act.
White South African political commentator, Wilhem Petzer has provided an in-depth analysis of Malema’s incitement of violence against Whites in the video below, showing that Malema is cleverly doing so but with “plausible deniability” from a legal point of view. In reality, Malema is being protected behind the scenes by very powerful forces who are intent upon moving forward with the removal of Whites from South Africa.
I’d be willing to bet that the prison system in SA is similar to that of the USA, so I have no doubt that blacks in SA have no problem going to jail just like the Amerikan blacks. 3 hots and a cot. Electricity and running water. TVs and exercise equipment. I have witnessed in jail (yes, I have been there) that it is a veritable family reunion every time a ‘person of color’ steps into the facility. Hugs, high fives, “yo, dog! You back again? (But I dindu nuffin!)” I did NOT witness that from ANY white person in the 2 1/2 months I spent behind bars…
Prison obviously isn’t much of a deterrent of crime for most Blacks, even in America where over 70% of the prison population is Black. They know the judicial system will bend over backwards for them to give them any break possible, and the death penalty takes so long to carry out that it’s not real to them. And once Malema and his commie followers are in power, they’ll empty the prisons anyway….
