HRC finally acts against Malema after complaint from FF Plus
9 November 2022
The FF Plus welcomes the finding by the Human Rights Commission (HRC) that Julius Malema, leader of the EFF, is guilty of hate speech and incitement to violence.
Last month, the FF Plus lodged a complaint against Malema with the HRC after Malema made inflammatory statements at the EFF's provincial election conference in the Western Cape.
He said, among other things, that a white man who allegedly assaulted EFF members at a school must be "attended to", and that a revolutionary must not be "afraid to kill".
According to the HRC, other transgressions in terms of the Promotion of Equality and Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act may also have been committed through banners that the EFF displayed at its conference.
