Zuma protection unit members in court | News Article

Potchefstroom - Two police members who are part of President Jacob Zuma's presidential protection unit are expected back in the Potchefstroom Magistrate’s Court today on charges of attempted murder, reckless and negligent driving, pointing a firearm, firing a weapon and malicious damage to property.

On August 22 2013, Malose Mokonyane and Sakoela Lepota allegedly tried to force Schalk Enslin’s car from the road while travelling on the N12 between Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp.
 
During a previous court appearance, Enslin testified that Mokonyane and Lepota tried to force him from the road after driving at high speed behind him. He also says they fired a shot which hit his left front tyre.
 
The two police officers then allegedly drove away from the crime scene without providing their personal details and without reporting the incident to the police.
 
The suspects are out on bail of R3 000.
