EFF leader Julius Malema has accused judge Arnoldus Mauritius Legodi Phatudi of allegedly being captured after he was nominated by an ANC politician for the judge president vacancy in the Limpopo division of the high court.
“Why would a judge who is not captured not see anything wrong with being nominated by a politician, irrespective of which political party the politician comes from, and do not want to disassociate yourself?” Malema asked.He asked that the politician’s nomination be expunged from his record.
Earlier this week, Malema slammed judge Mpho Catherine Mamosebo for “not knowing basic concepts”, alleging she was unprepared. Commissioner and attorney Ettienne Barnard asked her: “If there is a dispute regarding the counting of votes and seriously linked to irregularity, what sort of relief can be given by the electoral court?”
When the candidate replied, Barnard felt her answer was inadequate and Malema slammed her for being unprepared. “You are asked a simple question. In a situation where the court finds there are serious irregularities, what would the court do? You go and open a book. That is something you should have prepared if you want to come to this court.”
