ActionSA heads to police over ‘new’ Phala Phala claims targeting Ramaphosa

President Cyril Ramaphosa is facing renewed pressure as ActionSA prepares to lay criminal charges linked to the controversial Phala Phala farm saga. The party claims the amount stolen during the 2020 burglary may have been as high as R15 million, far more than previously reported and says this raises serious questions about alleged misrepresentation and non-disclosure. The move follows last week’s Constitutional Court ruling that revived the possibility of a parliamentary impeachment inquiry, thrusting the scandal back into the national spotlight. ActionSA leaders are expected to open the case in Bela Bela on Wednesday, accusing the president of fraud, perjury and violations of anti-corruption laws. Phemelo speaks to Matakanye Matakanye.
