The EFF has called on the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) to ensure that it opposes bail for the ANC member of parliament arrested for the alleged murder of his wife.

The ANC Youth and Women’s Leagues are also expected to picket outside court. They say the MP should be denied bail.

The chairperson of the Youth League Wessels Morweng says: “What is also disturbing about this case is that once again, a woman has been killed in the comfort of her own home, wherein we expect a person whom has killed her, to be the person that protects her. So, we distance ourselves from any relations which we might have with the comrade as our member of the ANC Youth League, as a member of the ANC. We stand with the victim. We are calling for harsher sentences. We are calling for no bail.

“I do not expect the ANC to distance themselves from this situation. In fact, what I’m expecting is that they will argue that the law must go their way. And they will act accordingly. And if there is a strong case, this specific individual will be asked to step aside. I think the ANC at this point in time will follow proper processes and protocol. –

No one have the right to kill a person whether is ANC or EFF or DA or IFP not bail must granted to him but EFF is jumping the guns. Wait let the laws took its place. You do not tell the court what to do as the political party that is matured
