De Klerk must be punished: Malema

De Klerk recently asked for an urgent meeting with the Human Rights Commission following Malema's comments on land last week in Newcastle where he made a court appearance.

Following another court appearance today - this time in the Bloemfontein Magistrate's Court - the firebrand lashed out at De Klerk, saying he has no right to lecture him. 

Malema continued to urge black South Africans to occupy land that rightfully belongs to them.

Malema said De Klerk presided over the genocide of black South Africans, and therefore has no right to lecture anyone on democracy.

“I will never listen to De Klerk – my wish is to see him in prison. My wish is to see de Klerk suffering for a very long time for the crimes they committed against blacks and were never punished for," he said.

Malema added that he was never in favour of reconciliation, only justice.

“Don’t talk to me about peace. There’s no peace without justice. Justice is the return of the land. There will never be peace at the expense of justice,” he said.
