Shock at charges against 'Winnie cops': The NPA's decision to bring criminal charges against two policemen who stopped Winnie Madikizela-Mandela's car has been met with shock by the SA Police Union.
It seems that the Mandela name has saved Winnie Mandela many times.
Besides this incident;
1) "On 24 April 2003, she was found guilty on 43 counts of fraud and 25 of theft...."
2) "Appointed Deputy Minister of Arts, Culture, Science and Technology in the first post-Apartheid government (May 1994), she was dismissed eleven months later following allegations of corruption."
3) "Seipei's body was found in a field with stab wounds to the throat on 6 January 1989.[10] This incident became a cause célèbre for the apartheid government. In 1991, she was convicted of kidnapping and being an accessory to assault in connection with the death of Seipei. Her six-year jail sentence was reduced to a fine on appeal."
4) "...in 1998, found "Ms Winnie Madikizela Mandela politically and morally accountable for the gross violations of human rights committed by the MUFC." (MUFC - Mandela United Football Club).
5) "...she endorsed the practice of necklacing (burning people alive using tyres and petrol) in the struggle to end apartheid.
