AfriForum’s private prosecution unit announced on Tuesday that the state had decided to prosecute Vuyo Mhlakaza-Manamela, the deputy speaker of the Gauteng legislature.

Two weeks ago, AfriForum said it would take up the case of a police protection and security services officer who was allegedly assaulted by Mhlakaza-Manamela. The organisation said this development arose after it wrote to the National Prosecuting Authority about the abandoned case against Mhlakaza-Manamela.

“The case stems from an alleged attack on police protection and security services officer Sgt Lizzy Mojapelo,” AfriForum said in a statement. AfriForum said Andrew Chauke, the Gauteng director of public prosecutions, wrote in a letter addressed to the unit: “Having studied the contents of the docket, your request for a nolle prosequi certificate and the report of the relevant senior public prosecutor, this office is satisfied that there is a prima facie case against Nomvuyo Mhlakaza-Manamela and the matter should not have been withdrawn against her.
