The ANC said it will be monitoring developments around the warrant of arrest of its secretary general Ace Magashule. The party’s spokesperson Pule Mabe said it learned through the media of the warrant of arrest. He downplayed the news that he would be expected to hand himself over and appear in the Bloemfontein Magistrate’s Court this week. The charges relate to the controversial asbestos contract to the value of R255 million, which was issued when he was premier of the Free State.
