The "passes" needed by black people to move from one place to another are maybe history in South Africa but as far as working with africans to end foreign influence in Africa, Zuma and his cronies are just a big joke. The latest zulu punch zuma's regime is delivering to the continent is to investigate Mr. Ravalomanana,the late democratically elected president who was overthrown in a French sponsored coup in Madagascar. The move is without any doubt to prevent him from running in the upcoming elections.
With no shame, souh african authorities are out to build a case for crime against humanity against the former president !!!!!!
This is what zuma's fist was for ,always navigating downstream side by side with the same people who sold nuclear technology to the apartheid regime. One can bet former south african diehard racist presidents such as Balthazar Johannes Vorster, Peter Botha,Marais Viljoen are having fun in their graves. As one put it, Zuma is back again in the saddle to continue the betrayal of Africa. The only thing that really changed in South Africa is the skin Color of those in charge, you bet ! angry

NPA probes Ravalomanana for crimes against humanity

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) is investigating former Madagascan president Marc Ravalomanana for alleged crimes against humanity, according to a report on Sunday.

The NPA confirmed on Saturday that initial material it had obtained suggested a "reasonable evidence" that crimes against humanity had alleged occurred, the Sunday Times reported.

Ravalomanana fled to South Africa in 2009, after weeks of tension in Madagascar, exacerbated by his guards opening fire on peaceful protesters. About 40 people were killed.

NPA official Bulelwa Makeke said: "I can confirm that the process of collecting evidence is under way and discussions with the directorate of priority crime investigation have been held." ....

Date set for elections
Meanwhile, Madagascar's election commission said last week the island nation planned to hold its presidential election next year on May 8.

Election commission president Beatrice Attalah said that the country would hold a run-off on July 3 2013, as well as elections for the National Assembly the same day. Attalah said elections for municipal posts will be held October 23 2013.

Ravalomanana remains unable to return home. Rival Andry Rajoelina toppled Ravalomanana in 2009 and now leads a unity government charged with preparing for next year's elections.

Ravalomanana and Rajoelina held talks recently in the Seychelles about allowing the exiled president to return. However, officials in Madagascar deported Ravalomanana's wife to Thailand when she recently flew into the country with a relative.
