Supporters of eThekwini mayor Gumede threaten journalists, block media from taking pictures | kaveels

Earlier on Tuesday, Gumede was granted R50 000 bail after appearing on charges that include money laundering, corruption and racketeering.

She has been accused of using her political position to influence a Durban Solid Waste contract that had no ceiling on the amount of illegal dumping. There was a previous ceiling of R5m. In addition, she and Mthembu are accused of manipulating various legal and supply chain processes to ensure that the four service providers manipulated the tender system.

"If they are found to have been violated, bail will be revoked and you will be in custody for the remainder of the matter."The ANC in the eThekwini region said it had faith in the justice system and"hopes that this matter will be treated with respect and integrity it deserves".
