Cape Town - ANC national executive committee member Tony Yengeni reportedly spent Sunday night in police cells after being arrested, apparently for drunken driving.

Die Burger reported on Monday that Yengeni was arrested at 18:00 on Sunday in Cape Town. He was driving a Maserati.

He was seen leaving the police station on Monday morning after being released on bail of R500.

A police spokesperson confirmed this to Die Burger. "Yes, you can say so," he said in response to a question about whether it was indeed Yengeni, and whether he had been arrested for drunken driving.

Yengeni was also arrested for drunken driving in Goodwood, Cape Town in November 2007.

Yengeni is currently the ANC's head of political education. He was found guilty of fraud relating to the arms deal and released on parole in 2007 after serving four months of his four year sentence.

This guy always lands up in trouble. He must be really good mates with JZ and the other ANC bigwigs, cause they still keep him around regardless.
 
RACISM ! WTF The DA in Western Cape in general and Capetown in particular, is on a mission to discredit our members :D
 
And he is going to get away again.

When he was in jail he got weekends off and was spotted drinking having a ball.
His sleaze ball pal Nkonde Balfour, minister of correctional services helped him.
He was caught again drinking which was in contravention of his parole conditions.
Let's see what he gets away with this time.

Scumbags
 
drink and get locked up for Driving under the influence - that's what they do. :D

Also he must be on some minister salary to have a Maserati in his garage.

Pity we don't have the three strikes rule here like they do in the USA. Jail for the rest of his life would suit me just fine.
 
Yoh ANC political educators must be living the high roller life to have a Maserati!

Not surprising, when an ANC top-dog gets arrested, its only for a couple of days till their strings come into play.

Bail of R500! That's like 10c to him!
 
He is only solidifying his cANCer position by being a criminal IMO.
 
I am 100% sure that this was caused by a sinister 3rd force. Comrade Tony would never act in this way.
 
Tony "Maserati" Yengeni
The Maserati comes with a get out of jail free card (not valid in Western Cape!).
 
Yengeni Arrest Report Unconfirmed

Reports that ANC national executive committee member Tony Yengeni was arrested for drunk driving at the weekend could not be immediately confirmed on Monday.

Western Cape police would only say that a 58-year-old man was arrested on the corner of Somerset and Dixon Roads in Cape Town on Sunday for drunk driving.

"He was detained at Cape Town central police station for the duration of the night and released on bail this morning, 7.30am Monday," Captain Frederick van Wyk said.

"He is due to make a court appearance at Cape Town Magistrate's Court on 4th March 2014."

Van Wyk could not confirm that the individual arrested was Yengeni.

Beeld reported online on Monday that its Cape Town sister newspaper Die Burger had seen Yengeni leaving police cells in the morning after paying bail of R500.

He was reportedly driving a Maserati when he was arrested.

In 2007, Yengeni was arrested in Goodwood on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol. He was also granted R500 bail at the time. He was found not guilty on that case.

At the time, Yengeni was out on parole after his 2003 conviction for defrauding Parliament by failing to disclose a 47 percent discount on a 4X4 Mercedes-Benz.
