Marshall Dlamini Retains Parliament Seat Despite Suspended Sentence
Marshall Dlamini, the Secretary General of the EFF, has been sentenced to 18 months imprisonment (suspended for five years) along with a R6,000 fine, yet he will continue to serve as a Member of Parliament. His conviction stems from a 2019 incident involving the assault of a police officer. Due to the fine inclusion, he remains eligible for his parliamentary role.
