A former Nelson Mandela Bay EFF deputy regional chair has been sentenced for defacing the Anglo-Boer War statue in Uitenhage three years ago.
Elijah “Bo” Madwara, 34, must either pay a R4,000 fine or face six months’ imprisonment – of which half was suspended for three years – for malicious damage to property.
He was also fined R2,000 (or four months’ imprisonment) for obstructing a police official.
Madwara was sentenced in the Uitenhage District Court on June 29.
