Operation Dudula leader Nhlanhla “Lux” Dlamini, also known as Ntlantla “Lux” Mohlauli, on Wednesday morning handed himself over to the police in Soweto accompanied by his lawyer, Dumisani Mabunda.
Africa News Global understands that the matter relates to an old case in which Dlamini was released on warning.
According to sources, Dlamini was released on R1 000 bail for an assault charge of several years ago. An Operation Dudula member who spoke on condition of anonymity said the fact that police were resuscitating old cases “clearly proved there is a politically-motivated sinister agenda against Operation Dudula and its leadership”.
Last month, Dlamini was granted bail of R1,500 by the Roodepoort Magistrate’s Court.
This followed his arrest on charges of malicious damage to property, theft and burglary.
The charges are in connection with an incident last month in which he and Operation Dudula members ransacked Soweto resident Victor Ramerafe’s home in search of drugs.
