She suggested the EFF was in breach of the Electoral Code of Conduct, which risked having their registration for the elections revoked.
Journalist Karima Brown on Wednesday said she would lay complaints with the police and the Electoral Commission against the Economic Freedom Fighters after Julius Malema sparked an outpouring of abuse against her from his supporters.
Parties who breach the code risk having their registration for the elections revoked. The spectre of the EFF being barred for the polls was raised by media freedom activists last year when Malema launched sustained attacks on journalists, among them Brown, News24 editor Adriaan Basson and Tiso Blackstar reporter Ranjeni Munusamy.
Brown had tried to post a brief of the event to colleagues at eNCA, where she hosts a weekly show on politics, but mistakenly sent it to the EFF’s WhatsApp group. Sanef demanded an apology, but EFF spokesman Mbuyiseni Ndlozi issued a statement branding Brown an “ANC operative”. “How do they live up to the bill of rights? That is my question. Today it is me. Tomorrow it is person X. This is how fascism starts,” she added.
