The assault case, involving EFF leader Julius Malema and party MP Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, has been postponed to the 9th of March next year at the Randburg Magistrate’s Court. A new witness is expected to be called in March. Malema and Ndlozi’s legal representative Lawrence Hodes wrapped-up cross-examination of Colonel Johannes Venter. Extensive use of video footage of the incident where Malema and Ndlozi are alleged to have assaulted the police officer has been used in court. Malema and Ndlozi are accused of assaulting Venter at the funeral of Winnie Madikizela-Mandela in 2018.
