The ANC National Disciplinary Committee issued findings against six ANC Youth League (ANCYL) leaders, including president Julius Malema. Malema received a five-year suspension, while several other respondents received suspended sanctions; the decisions were subject to appeal. The proceedings exposed tensions between party discipline and the Youth Leagueโs demands on nationalisation, redistribution and leadership. The committee framed its ruling as organisational unity; critics saw a struggle over who could set the limits of policy debate.
