EFF Leader, Julius Malema has effectively lost his qualification to serve as a Member of Parliament after being sentenced to five years’ direct imprisonment. The ruling follows his conviction on multiple counts under the Firearms Control Act, stemming from an incident where he discharged a firearm in public.
The Economic Freedom Fighters leader will serve an effective five-year jail term after the court ordered additional sentences to run concurrently. The case relates to a 2018 incident in Mdantsane, raising significant political implications for both Malema and his party.
