Dlamini faces charges of housebreaking, theft, and malicious damage to property after Operation Dudula members allegedly raided a house of a Soweto resident that locals had alleged was being used to sell drugs.“He was arrested by an army of police, in 30 vehicles, brandishing rifles, all of them. It shows that there’s a political motive behind his arrest. As you would remember, when Julius Malema, is to be arrested, he gets called and told that he must hand himself over to the police.
Dlamini’s Lawyer Ike Khumalo says, “If we apply the law, then he must be out because these charges are not charges that can warrant him not to get bail.
