South Africa’s EFF leader Julius Malema has been charges by authorities for shooting a firearm during a rally in the Eastern Cape last year.

He is jointly charged with his bodyguard Adriaan Snyman.

South Aferican media have reported that Snyman is being charged for unlawfully providing a firearm and ammunition to Malema.

The former ANC Youth League President faces five counts, including unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition.

In an interview with ENCA NPA’s Luxolo Tyali said Malema did not have the necessary permit to possess and discharge a firearm during the time of committing the crime.

EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi claimed at the time that Malema had fired a toy gun and not a high-powered automatic rifle.
