By A Correspondent- Norton legislator Temba Mliswa has warned EFF leader Julius Malema to stay clear of the country’s courts and let the law take its course on G40 remnants who are currently in hiding regionally and internationally.

Mliswa said this last Thursday during the 2020 Budget presentation in parliament.

He said:

“Let me lastly say that I was a bit worried when I read that my colleague. Julius Malema had mentioned that he wanted to mediate in the G40.  Let me say this to Hon. Malema, that there is a law in this country.  

As much as he fights against corruption in South Africa, we equally fight against corruption.  The best that he can do to mediate is talk to his fellow friends to come and face the laws of this country.  

They committed a crime and as such, there is no political matter which is stopping them from being here other than that they committed crimes which are well known and they must face the courts of this country because we are a law abiding country. 

He is misinformed by thinking that there is any political motive on that. It is purely a law issue which can only be addressed by the courts, so the mediator is already, there being the courts.  

We do not need him to mediate in matters which are before the courts in this country.  May he stick to his principles of being an Hon. Member of Parliament who fights corruption in his country and allow us to fight corruption in this country.  

If he has decided to be an external affairs officer for the G40 then he must come out in the clean.”
