EFF leader Julius Malema has demanded the immediate withdrawal of a new book exposing his relationship with confessed tobacco smuggler Adriano Mazzotti.
Malema further wanted News24 to retract a story, based on damning allegations made in the book, that he was plied with cash and expensive alcohol by Mazzotti.
On Friday, News24 reported that several allegations were made against Malema and his deputy, Floyd Shivambu, in investigative journalist and author Jacques Pauw's new book Our Poisoned Land: Living in the Shadows of Zuma's Keepers. In the book, Pauw lifts the lid on skulduggery in the Hawks, mafia networks at the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa and the depths of Malema's relationship with Mazzotti.
