MALEMA GUN DRAMA COULD LAND HIM IN JAIL AS COURT DECIDES | ICYMI

MDNtv — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 18:31:39 +0000

This is a news update from MDNtv, when things happen fast, you’re always in the know.

EFF leader Julius Malema is now facing a decisive moment in his firearm case, as the court hears arguments that could determine whether he is sent to prison.

The case follows the controversial incident where Malema was seen with a rifle at a public event, leading to charges that have gripped national attention.

The state is pushing for a jail sentence, arguing that the conduct was reckless and posed a serious risk to the public.

Malema’s legal team is fighting back, insisting that a prison sentence would be excessive and unjust.

With the court now weighing its decision, South Africa is watching closely as the outcome could have major political implications.
