Economic Freedom Fighters supporters accused ANC supporters of beating them up in Diepsloot on Friday.

Residents supporting the EFF stood outside the Diepsloot police station but were not allowed in.

They complained about being shut out saying the police were supposed to provide a place of safety.

Residents refused to speak to the media. However, one EFF supporter said he planned to open a case with the police.

Earlier, angry Diepsloot residents gathered outside the local police station protesting about the murder of two toddlers.

They demanded that police release to them a fifth man arrested earlier in the day so they could burn him.

The bodies of two-year-old Yonelisa Mali and her cousin Zandile Mali, three, were found on Tuesday. They were reported missing at the weekend.

Four men are expected to appear in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court on Friday on charges of rape and murder.

There was a heavy police presence in the area.

The African National Congress Youth League marched to the police station to hand over a memorandum.

"We raised a lot of grievances that we have as a community here in Diepsloot on issues of crime and drugs," ANCYL national task team co-ordinator Mzwandile Masina said after handing over the memorandum.

"Now we want to work with the community to ensure there's peace in the area. We want visible policing at all times."

Residents supporting the ANC and those supporting Julius Malema's EFF clashed in the streets.

EFF supporters in red berets sang songs mocking President Jacob Zuma.

"If you are a person who is voting for Zuma you are not to be trusted," they sang in Sesotho.

Some residents ripped up ANC placards.

Others started banging on a car when they saw a person in an ANC T-shirt inside. Police intervened.

wtf.
 
Welcome to the civil war that will grip this country if the elections are tightly contested. I have heard of the coming destruction of SA and people wanting to flee since 1994 but for the first time i can actually see some valid reasons why people would be making plans to exit this country.
 
You guys think this is good? Are you guys looking forward to a civil war and destruction of this country?

I don't know but i find hatred flowing to be a bad thing, not a good thing.

By burn I suppose the mean necklacing, yes? Hmm, next election's going to be interesting, that's for sure.
 
Malema like Zille and Tsvangirai is an agent of the West, the masses will deal with him accordingly

Since 1652, South Africa has always been at war with itself.... why should anything change now?

It is the first time the black population are going to go at each other if i am not mistaken. I stand to be correct but has the black population had a civil war in this country?

I for one hope not! But something in my mind keeps telling me it's inevitable, sometime in future it will happen. Malema have no choice but to take on the leadership or become a [-]second[/-]third grade wood craftsman..

Well the problem is malema has always had a choice to take on the leadership he just needed to ensure he was persecuted and he needed to make sure the ANC would do it. People underestimate the man, even i did. I never looked at what he was doing as i do now.

Basically he has engineered this by the look of it. Demonizing the ANC while promising the poor who make up the majority of country a better life and considering the ANC don't better their lives what difference would voting for EFF make? if you live in poverty under malema or the ANC what is the difference?

I don't think it will be civil war at all.

Whats happening is that the radical and moderate parts of the ANC are butting heads. This is the split that will change things.

its might be a messy devorce but it was bound to happen... once its over things will be better
