Mokgwabone further urged the public to refrain from re-circulating the video. He added that the investigation into the incidents continues and the suspect is expected to appear before the court soon.

“The members of the community and civil society organisations are requested to exercise patience and allow the police to conduct investigations.

“In the meantime, we are not aware of allegations that the police refused to assist the complainant in the crimen injuria case. Thus, we request those making allegations to lodge a formal complaint for investigation,” said Mokgwabone.

Finally! Tebogo Elijah Sepale has been arrested Suspended From ANC

Meanwhile, the ANC in the North West said it has noted with shock a video of one of its public representatives engaged in a sεxual act. The ANC provincial secretary, Louis Diremelo said, they have received a number of complaints from various women against the said public representative.

“We are also aware that one of his victims has opened a case against him with law enforcement agencies. So, rising from this despicable behaviour, the ANC has suspended the membership of Sepale with immediate effect.

“Therefore, he will not be allowed to participate in any ANC activities. This suspension will hold until the outcomes of the disciplinary process. Sepale is suspended in terms of Rule 25.17.4 of the Constitution of the ANC,” Diremelo said.

He said this behaviour goes against their values and commitment to building a cohesive society, in which all people are treated with respect and dignity. Diremelo said, therefore, the ANC will not stand idle when such tendencies rear their ugly face.

“We will act immediately and swiftly to root out such behaviour. As ANC, we convey our sympathies to the victims of this act and call on those who have not come forward, to do so.

“We further apologise to all members of society and assure them that this act goes against our values,” he said.
