On Tuesday, 2oceansVibe reported that there were possibly going to be new charges brought against ANCYL president, Julius Malema. Julius and other members of the league managed to infringe upon the ANC’s constitution, and the new charges that were served earlier, relate to his comments that the ANCYL will work against the government of Botswana to effect a regime change.

This is from the official statement on the ANC’s website:

The ANC National Disciplinary Committee would like to confirm that the African National Congress, through its National Officials, served charges this morning on one of its members, namely Comrade Julius Malema, who is also the President of the ANC Youth League. Comrade Julius Malema has been charged with various violations of the ANC Constitution, including bringing the ANC into disrepute through his utterances and statements on Botswana and sowing divisions in the ranks of the African National Congress.

The disciplinary matter concerning Comrade Julius is now in the hands of the ANC National Disciplinary Committee, will henceforth deal with the date, venue and time of the hearing.

When Malema was found guilty of similar infringements of bringing the ANC into disrepute last year, he was told he would be expelled from the party should he be convicted again and found guilty of violating his suspended sentence.

This should be interesting.
