"In Soweto, where four learners were allegedly killed by two reckless drivers the previous week, we urge parents, educators and the community at large to reign (sic) over our learners and let them go back to class.

ANC spokesperson Jackson Mthembu said the party had "full confidence" in the criminal justice system.

"They (the pupils) must allow the law to take its course without any hindrance."

Yes, Jackson, we believe you!

Cape Town - ANC spokesperson Jackson Mthembu was arrested for drunken driving in Cape Town on Thursday morning, officials said.

Colleague tried to stop arrest

Smith said a colleague driving behind Mthembu pulled off the highway and tried to stop the officers from cuffing him. It was only then the officers realised he was a high-ranking politician, said Smith.

Mthembu was first taken to Mowbray police station. Smith said a constable at the station did not want to process his case because he was a senior African National Congress member.

"They were unwilling to process the details against Mthembu. There was a threat made that our officers would be arrested," said Smith.

"The officers felt they were being intimidated because of the political credentials of the person involved."

The ghost squad members then took him to the Safely Home Anti Drunk-driving Operations War Room (Shadow) in Athlone.

"The law should not protect politicians," said Smith.

What a joke, If the law takes it course according to Jackson, anybody with any political clout, or with some sort of fame attached to them gets off Scott free.
